Good product! in transmission and transmission

I have bought knives 14, 12, 5, 4, 3 inch all good knives they are exactly the same as USG knives. Good weight and perfect flexibility. I wish they made knives smaller than 3 inches.

Pros
  • ADDITIONAL FEATURES | Alloy metal hammer head for nailing drywall (also provides blade protection if dropped). Big hole for hanging.
Cons
  • Not the best

Well made band knife, handy hammer end.

I didn't understand the meaning of the hammer end when I bought this, but it's pretty useful to knock out the latches so you can easily fill without grabbing another tool.

Good knives at a good price

Used my new knives today. Bought 6,8,10,12. Good feeling at the handle. Blue steel is not as soft and flexible as we would like. But I'm sure it will come with time. Great alternative to knives sold by Lowe's or Homedepot, Usg or Goldblatt. I'll give them another month or so and if it works I'll try the dirt pan they sell.

  • PLEASE NOTE: This professional finishing tool has a blue steel blade. It requires proper care and storage or it will corrode/rust (see care instructions in description below). To find an easy-care stainless steel version of this blade, search Amazon for B076R2TYWD.
Cons
  • Expensive

Extremely disappointed

As a drywall and cone installer, I heard the legend of the Level 5 tools and couldn't wait to try them. What I received for my order was surprisingly disappointing. As you can see from the photos they sent me a blade that was used at best and beaten at worst. The photos show the blade with a bent and broken corner, scratches all over the blade and a clear dent in another corner. The grip looked like it was nicked and the rubber partially torn off. Unfortunately I won't be ordering anything from
