What it does

Flexible 6" (152 mm) stainless steel joint knife. The blade is double hollow-ground for the flex point, and the grip has overmold cushioning. Stainless resists rust.

How to use it

  1. Press at the handle center to leave the joint slightly proud for sanding; press a corner to feather that side out.
  2. Lay compound at a low angle and raise the blade to strike it off level.
  3. Rinse after use and dress the edge with a file if it dents.

Common questions

Does stainless feel stiff?

Not this one. It is double hollow-ground, so the flex point behaves like a good carbon blade.

Do I have to dry it?

No. Rinse and rack it.

6" or wider?

A 6" covers tape, spotting and patches. Buy a taping knife alongside it for fill and skim coats.

How is it different from the full-metal 06879?

Same width and steel. The 06878 has a cushioned bonded grip. The 06879 is one continuous piece of stainless with no crevices.
