What it does

Black & Silver 8" flexible joint knife with a high-carbon steel full-tang blade. An 8" blade holds a smooth bow across a full seam, so it lays a flatter fill than a narrower knife. No Hammer Head.

How to use it

  1. Press at the center of the handle to bow the blade and leave a sandable crown. Press one corner to feather that edge to nothing.
  2. Load from the pan and wipe the blade on the pan rim after every pull.
  3. Wash and dry it at the end of the day. Do not leave it in the bucket.

Common questions

Is an 8" knife for taping?

No. Tape is bedded with a 4 to 6" knife. The 8" lays the fill coat after the tape is on.

Why carbon and not stainless?

Carbon has a keener edge and tunes better. The cost is drying it after every wash. Stainless siblings need no care.

Can it set a popped nail?

No. The 02995 is the 8" with a Hammer Head.

8" or 10"?

8" for standard tapered seams. 10" for wider systems and walls out of plane.
