Richard Pro Series Flexible Carbon Steel Putty Knife - 1-1/2"
The Richard Pro Series Carbon Steel Putty Knife is a professional‑grade tool engineered for drywall finishing, patching, and general repair work. Built with a high‑carbon steel blade measuring between 0.05" and 0.065" thick, this knife delivers an ideal balance of flex, strength, and durability—making it suitable for applying joint compound, filling gaps, and setting drywall nails with precision.
Each blade features full‑tang construction, ensuring a solid feel and maximum tool longevity. The steel is heat‑treated, tempered, ground, mirror‑polished, and lacquer‑sealed, enhancing corrosion resistance and extending the life of the tool even in tough jobsite environments. A hollow‑ground design on both sides provides superior flexibility and smoother application of compounds across uneven surfaces.
The handle is made from polypropylene or nylon (depending on the model), providing excellent impact resistance, solvent resistance, and ergonomic comfort during extended use. Together, these features make the Richard Pro Series Putty Knife a trusted choice for contractors and DIY professionals who demand reliable performance and long‑lasting construction.
