This knife takes Accutec® LVT/LVP Blades (Crain Nos. 286C & 287) which have a wide bevel for scoring LVP and LVT. The long blade carrier provides knuckle clearance, while the thick body and hook handle produce a lot of pressure and pulling power. The blade clamp has a reversible insert that allows use with utility blades, standard hook blades, and even Crain No. 321 Hook Blades, which at one time were popular for cutting thick linoleum and vinyl. Blades can be stored in the handle.
Crain is an American manufacturer of professional flooring tools for the installation of carpet, vinyl and wood flooring including undercut saws, toe-kick saws, scrapers and stripper machines for tear out of old floor covering.
