LEVEL5 12" x 4.75" 0.7 MM Flat Drywall Trowel | Triple-Hardened Stainless Steel, High-Impact Handle | Sheetrock Gyprock Wall-Board Plasterboard | 4-961

This was excellent. I am not a professional. I watched youtube videos from "Vancouver Carpenter" and "That kilted guy" to learn drywall techique so I could finish a 430 square foot room. I feel that my job results were very positive considering my inexperience. I made mistakes. I had a lot of shimming to do, but I neglected to shim some of the walls and had to fix a lot of crooked walls. Although I was much slower than a pro would have been, I feel like I can to a very good quality job now. I also had short knee walls under sloped ceiling, which I used ultraflex to help me get a straight corner. I had accumulated tools for the job from various locations including big box hardware stores. They all varied in quality. My hawk was low quality, but worked well enough. Some of my knives were pretty bad, rusted, had poor handles etc. This trowel was awesome. Comfortable handle, durable metal, no rust. It is obviously made well for people who used it for their profession. Anyway, as much as I hate drywall finishing, this was easier to use than a knife and I spilled less mud and probably got smoother joints. Even though I got tired after hours of holding hawk in left hand and trowel in right hand, the trowel did everything it could to help do the job right: better grip angle, grip texture, grip size, blade flexibility etc.

I’ve done so many jobs with this and it’s still going strong. It’s light so your hand doesn’t get tired while working. Easy to clean and durable because it has fallen from high heights and has not been damaged.

This has become my favorite drywall tool. Sharp edges, easy to keep clean, and has a comfortable grip. I will be purchasing more of their knives in the future.

Nice product this is like my third one that I’d buy Nice quality, I’ll recommend it 100%

I try not to do a lot of drywall work because I don't enjoy it. As an advanced diy'er/novice pro I can say that good quality tools do make a big difference in the finished results. This is the best trowel I have ever used by far! Yes, it is not cheap by any means, but it will give you the best results from your abilities, limited or not.

Well made. Handle is stout enough for a good grip. No rust.

Nice Handle on this Trowel and feels nice. Able todo two coats 6and 12 wide with same tool as well as skimming with it👍🏾👍🏾

Just received this 11 1/2 x 4 1/2 trowel and so far very pleased. It is definitely flat, not curved like most trowels. Need it to be flat to work with my taping and mudding project. It comes with guards to protect the blade edges when storing, plus the corners are rounded to make the application of mud smooth, not leaving marks. The handle is comfortable but I'm hoping it isn't too large for my hand. I'm excited to use it.
