Is this the right tool for your job?

DO NOT FORCE THE FIT
  • This is the load-bearing warning.
  • A stiff, bevel-free blade cannot bow to feather joint compound and has no ground edge to strike a coat level — it will leave ridges and pull mud out of depressions instead of filling them.
  • For tape, fill, and skim, its flexible one-piece sibling the 06879 is the correct tool; the 06880 and 06879 look related and are opposite tools.
  • It is also not a paint scraper (no bevel to lift material) and not a trim-cutting tool (use a knife against a broad blade or shield for that).

Asked at the counter

BUYER QUESTIONS ANSWERED BEFORE THE CART, NOT AFTER THE RETURN
Can I use this to finish drywall?
No — it is stiff and bevel-free; it cannot feather compound. Use the flexible 06879 instead.
What is it actually for?
Applying, smoothing, and fitting wallcoverings — a wallpaper smoother and creaser.
Is it still made?
No, it is discontinued; this is a reference page.
Why is it in the joint-knife family?
It shares the silhouette and the one-piece stainless build, but its stiff square blade puts it in the wallcovering-tool class, not the compound-tool class.

Great Knife

We use joint knives to dip process ink out of drums and fill fountains on our printing press. It is hard to find a joint knife that is stiff enough to handle the ink we dip. Most of the knives will break and are too flexible. These joint knives are the best I have found. If you are looking for a stiff joint knife, look no further. This knife is stiff and built to last. Great knife and will recommend it and buy again.
