Common questions

Is the 54040 better than the 54020?

No. The half inch is a job-fit choice and the only listed difference.

Why buy a longer carpet knife?

Reach through doubled goods, fewer strokes on big rough cuts, and leverage on the double-cut.

Fixed blade or the adjustable 42095?

Fixed blade if you keep a stone and want a knife for decades. Replaceable blades if you burn edges daily.

Can it double-cut a seam through two layers?

Yes, with a freshly stoned edge. It is the line's best tool for that cut.
