About this item

  • 0.5mm FLEX Blade ›› With a 4” deep blade, this FLEX version is ideal for finishing coats and offers perfect flex for maximum feel and control.

  • Threaded, removable die-cast zinc hammer end can be used to reset drywall screws. Also protects from mud accumulation inside handle when angle adapter is not used.
  • LIFETIME GUARANTEE ›› LEVEL5 Offset Finishing Knives come with the company’s legendary Lifetime Guarantee against defects in materials and workmanship.


LEVEL5 Offset Finishing Knives feature a handle that is offset slightly from the blade edge. This design enables you to lay the blade flatter against the wall for a smoother, tighter finish without coming into contact with your hand. The end result? You'll be able to produce a top notch finish easier and more efficiently, while simultaneously reducing wrist and hand fatigue.

LEVEL5 Offset Finishing Knives also feature a unique, ergonomic handle design that enables you to remove the hammer end and so you can mount the knife to a standard painter's pole or a LEVEL5 extendable skimming blade handle (using an optional adapter). You can then adjust the knife to any angle for any job.

- Premium Quality Blades | LEVEL5 Offset Finishing Knives are manufactured using premium, precision cut stainless steel.
- Ergonomic Handle | Comprising a strong, glass-filled polypropylene core overmolded with soft grip TPR for all-day comfort.
- Heavy Duty Construction | The handle is permanently affixed to the 5mm thick aluminum blade mount using multiple heavy duty stainless steel rivets. Unlike other designs, this handle will not spin or loosen over time with heavy commercial use.
- Removable Hammer End | On top the handle is a die-cast zinc hammer end that can be used to reset drywall screws. It also serves as a cap to ensure joint compound can't fill the handle when in use without the provided angle adaptor.


Available with stiff or flexible blades.

I love this brand and especially the offset knives. These knives make it easy to get a good finish and without having to put multiple coats on.

I am a drywall repair arteest in San Diego 3-7 days a week. This is my first offset knife and am very impressed with the quality and design. Took a few minutes to get used to the grip and then wow!! Really comfortable and easy to spread nice even coats of mud. The ease of the grip makes the 12” knife feel like a 10” so the 14” and 16” knives would be a great choice too.

the only thing that his knife would accomplish is cause more problems. the head wobbles badly and swivels freely with no way to fix it in place. a complete waste of time and money.

Not sure if it’s there manufacturing process that has terrible qc or if it’s amazon. Received a new offset no indication it’s a like product new, paid for new, assume it’s new but it’s all scratched up has metal burrs on edges/corners of blade, as well as terrible corner radius edges on handle. Looks like it fell from the top of the Empire State Building onto its corners.
