7" Flexible Nylon Handle Putty Knife uses a hardened, tempered and polished steel blade that outlasts other putty knives, so it keeps working through repeat filling and scraping tasks without frequent replacement. The flexible blade design provides controlled flex during use, which helps spread compounds smoothly over surfaces in woodworking or general repair work. The nylon handle gives a solid handhold during scraping or spreading, supporting steady pressure along the full blade length. This putty knife belongs to the putty knives product class within woodworking hand tools, keeping it in line with common shop workflows. The Stanley Hand Tools brand and 28-240 part number identify it clearly for reordering or matching existing shop standards. Flexible construction separates it from stiff options in the same family, letting you select the feel that suits surface preparation or finishing needs.
The flexible blade on the Stanley Hand Tools putty knife lets you pull or push filler across surfaces while the edge maintains contact, which supports consistent coverage on woodworking projects. The hardened, tempered and polished steel construction holds its working characteristics over time, so the feel of the knife remains familiar from job to job. The permanently fastened full tang design ties the nylon handle directly to the blade, helping every stroke transfer hand pressure down the full 7 inch length. As part of the putty knives class in hand tools, this knife fits naturally into surface prep and finishing steps, from filling minor imperfections to leveling product before sanding.
The 7 inch blade length on this flexible putty knife gives enough reach for broader swipes while staying maneuverable in typical woodworking setups. As a flexible variety within the full tang blade line, it suits applications that call for controlled give at the edge, such as spreading fillers or compounds across cabinet panels, trim pieces, or similar surfaces. The hardened and tempered steel blade endures repeated passes over workpieces, so it supports ongoing use in production or maintenance environments. The polished steel finish lets the blade glide more easily over work, which is useful when you want to leave a smooth surface that reduces follow-up sanding effort.
The nylon handle on the Stanley 28-240 putty knife anchors the permanently fastened full tang blade, giving a continuous connection from your grip to the blade tip for confident strokes. Being part of a line that offers both stiff and flexible blades, this specific flexible version fills the role where some bend improves contact without giving up control. The clear 28-240 manufacturer part number makes it straightforward to match this same feel across multiple stations or to replace worn tools with the identical model. Sold in both broken and full box quantities through Wurth Baer Supply, it supports stocking for single benches or larger woodworking operations that require multiple knives on hand.
The hardened, tempered and polished steel blade on this putty knife provides a working edge that resists deformation, so each pass stays predictable when leveling materials in woodworking processes. Hardening supports edge durability, tempering balances strength with toughness under load, and polishing refines the surface that contacts fillers or substrates. Together, these characteristics help the blade maintain its performance profile over many cycles of scraping, spreading, and cleaning.
The full tang blade construction, permanently fastened into the nylon handle, means the steel extends through the handle body, tying the grip directly to the working edge. This structure improves force transfer when you press the 7 inch blade against a surface, aiding straight, controlled strokes. Because the blade is offered as a flexible variety, it bends in a controlled way from that full tang core, giving a combination of strength and flex that supports precise pressure control along the blade span. Within a woodworking tool lineup, that combination helps installers and shop staff carry out consistent surface preparation and finishing passes.
The Stanley Hand Tools 28-240 putty knife uses a hardened, tempered and polished steel blade, which supports long service life and a smooth working edge during spreading or scraping tasks.
The flexible blade allows controlled bending under hand pressure, so the edge follows surface contours and helps create smoother, more uniform filler layers on wood or similar materials.
The putty knife has a 7 inch blade, providing reach for covering wider areas while still allowing precise control around edges, joints, or detailed sections.
The blade is a permanently fastened full tang design, so the steel runs through the nylon handle and creates a solid connection for reliable pressure transfer.
The polished steel blade surface reduces friction as it moves over material, helping compounds spread more cleanly and simplifying cleanup of the working edge.
This putty knife is sold in both broken and full box quantities, so it can support single-tool needs or larger shop stocking through Wurth Baer Supply.
