A putty knife is a handy tool for applying filler, scraping paint, or smoothing
A putty knife is a handy tool for applying filler, scraping paint, or smoothing surfaces during DIY or repair jobs. It’s lightweight and easy to handle, though cheaper versions can bend too easily or rust over time. A good quality one lasts longer and gives smoother finishes. An everyday scenario is using it to fill small wall cracks with spackle before repainting a room.
