This video really hit home with me. The moment you said your father loved putty knives, I thought about my own father who worked part time painting houses in the summer (in the 50-60’s). He could replace a broken window in minutes using a putty knife and a red can of white putty. After watching you, I braved the cold to go out to the garage to make sure I knew where his 2 putty knives were kept in my home shop. Thanks for the memories!👍

Believe it or not it was even dirtier! Mostly white in this case with lumps of old plaster, but underneath I thought I spotted the telltale colour of rosewood so I was excited to see how that would look cleaned, and expected some nice brass rivets to go along with the quality wood..... turns out it was just coloured varnish over beech And to make it even more mundane the rivets were just steel LOL
The word is puddy down here is Georgia too buddy!
What a beauty 👍
We went fromCrafts Tradesmen to DIY. For $1.59 any unskilledperson can sling mud on a nail hole and say "WhoooHOOOOO! I did it and saved $50.00." That works well when you learn and practice the Trade/art, but so often it's not the case. We cheaped out on quality of workmanship and the results ate evident.
Puddy knife looks great!! Wanted to thank you the other day on the scissor sharpening lesson... with the light on the edge. Holy cow what a difference. I have an old pair of USA Wiss that I just love to use. I attempted a sharpening a while back but .. well they just didn’t sharpen. But now.... that satisfying cut all the way to the tips.. ahhhh how nice! Thanks again!!!

I am so glad Nick! The draw strokes really make a difference!
I like that putty knife..I have made one from a hand saw blade
Hahaha I literally just did 5 of these earlier today they had all kinds of stuff on them they where all Hyde brand haha awesome we must be on the same page
before the pandemic i was finding great old putty knives at the flea market. i like the flexible ones but the stiff blades have their purpose. i love wire wheeling the old crud off the blade and seeing made in the USA. i like to research the company so i can get a idea of the age.
The big Zip. LOL strip. I buy the cheap plastic ones for work to clean the edge of DOT city State boxes in the ground works great
Got ya
(Pudty) knives are great for cleaning the grass off the bottom of the mower deck...etc.ect....stay safe crafterman...
I’ve got quite a few of the lovely old , well I call them scrapers. To me a putty knife has a point and a couple of reverse curves .Scrapers have fan shaped down to parallel shaped blades. But the old ones have fantastic steel, and they can have a knife sharp edge but are so flexible. Hot air gun or blowtorch and lift off all that lead paint!! Yum
John, i feel the same way. Go from good american made products to plastic throw away china crap! You dont see any professional drywallers using plastic putty knives! Cant wait to see your toolbox challenge. At least it will be made in the USA! 🇺🇸👍Roger
Great video some of those old time pudy knives are great looking.
take that putty knife to the kitchen and use it to butter your toast. it looks beautiful.
great job as alwaysm i love how the brass matches the wood
Looks pretty good...First one of putty knives work like a clock... :)
