The Linzer Project Select putty knife is a flexible carbon-steel scraper sized for the everyday paint, drywall, and trim tasks that come up on any homeowner job. The 3" blade covers more area per stroke than the narrower sizes and is the right pick for drywall patches, larger spackle fills, and the broader scraping work that comes up before repainting a wall or door.

• Blade width: 3"
• Blade material: high-quality carbon steel
• Blade temper: flexible (springs back from tip pressure for paint and glazing work)
• Handle: red-and-black rubber-and-vinyl comfort grip with steel end cap
• Steel end cap accepts light hammer taps for setting nail heads and seating glazier's points
• Use for surface preparation, filling cracks, scraping paint, and applying putty or glazing compound

Use the 3" width for drywall patch feathering over the patch repair tape, larger spackle fills (door-knob holes, nail-pop ridges), broad paint scraping on flat trim and door faces, and laying out a thin first skim coat on small drywall repairs.
