Review on ๐Ÿ”ช Allway Tools 6-Inch Drywall Flexible Steel Taping Knife: Perfect for Smooth Drywall Finishing by Non Martin

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great knife for gluing and repairing drywall!

This is a solid drywall knife at a reasonable price. It feels good in the hand and Allway has done a great job of finishing the edges and coating the blade to resist rust. I have a different brand 4" trowel that quickly began to delaminate and then rust, so the contrast was a pleasant surprise. It has enough flexibility to blend the edges. So far I am very happy with my drywall. Repair - and I know my own drywall technique leaves something to be desired. Two very minor criticisms: 1) A bit of paint from the handle is on the blade itself. It's cosmetic, but I'm not sure why they didn't . Do not assemble the two parts after the handle has been painted. 2) More problems with the combs where the handle attaches to the blade. If you wash it after use, water can easily slip into the grooves. Didn't want to test how rust resistant the knife is so I shake out all the water when I'm done, but it would be nice to be able to just grab a towel and dry it off without worry. However, these are small quirks. Good product.
