Hyde Tools 01040 Putty Knife

This flexible putty knife from Hyde Tools measures 7 inches overall with a 3-1/2 inch stainless steel blade that is 1-1/2 inches wide. The full-tang construction runs the blade through the handle for added strength during scraping and spreading tasks. A tapered nylon handle provides a comfortable grip for extended use. The black and silver finish resists corrosion on job sites.

Check blade width and flexibility before ordering

The 1-1/2 inch blade width suits narrow joints and detail work rather than broad wall coverage. Verify that a flexible blade matches the compound or adhesive you plan to spread. The single-edged design limits use to one working face. Buyers needing a wider or rigid blade for heavy scraping should look elsewhere.

Thermals noise and power draw in normal use

As a manual hand tool this knife generates no heat, noise or electrical draw during operation. The stainless steel blade stays cool to the touch even after prolonged scraping. No power source or ventilation is required. The nylon handle remains comfortable without vibration or fatigue factors.

Questions about this item

Does the 1040 putty knife come with any extra blades or a sheath, or is it just the single tool?

The 1040 putty knife is a single-piece tool with a full-tang stainless-steel blade and a nylon handle; no extra blades or sheath are included.

Should I choose the flexible blade or a stiff version for smoothing joint compound?

The 1040 has a flexible blade designed to feather joint compound and putty smoothly; a stiff blade would be a different model.

How does the 7 in overall length and 1-1/2 in blade width feel when spreading filler in tight corners?

The 7 in overall length and 1-1/2 in blade width give good control in corners while covering a useful swath of filler per stroke.
