Product details
Crain's vinyl knives. A dependable choice to complete your flooring project.
This knife is one of the best available for vinyl installation. The angled blade holder puts the blade at an optimal angle for long cuts, and keeps the knuckles off the floor. It takes the specialty Dexter No. 072 Hook Blades that have an ultra-deep hook to cleanly cut felt back vinyl. It also takes standard utility and hook blades.
The body has the classic contour of Dexter linoleum knives, and pivots open for blade storage by unscrewing the end cap. This is the Dexter No. 7 Custom Handle. Blades: No. 072 (Dexter No. 72-5 “V” Sharp Hook), No. 073 (Dexter No. 73-5 Heavy Duty Straight), No. 295 (standard utility) or No. 996 (standard hook). No blades are included with this knife.
