Product Description
72443 Stainless Steel Roofing & Flooring Hook Knife – Grip the Cut. Control the Line.
Flexible materials fight back when you cut them with the wrong tool. The POWERTEC 72443 is a stainless steel hook knife built specifically for pull-cutting vinyl flooring, linoleum, carpet, wallpaper, and roofing felt. The curved hawkbill blade and aggressive serrated edge bite into the material and hold their line, so the blade tracks true instead of skating across the surface.
It's the tool flooring installers, roofers, and remodelers reach for when a straight utility blade isn't enough. From trimming plank edges to slicing through layered underlayment, the hooked profile gets into tight corners that flat blades can't, making it just as useful for punch-list trim work as it is for full installs.
