Optimized Relief Knife for Better Wall Contact
Take the hassle out of uneven wall installations with this back relief molding knife. By cutting a slight recess into the backside of trim, it improves fit and adhesion—especially valuable in rooms where wall flatness is less than ideal.

- Provides built-in flexibility by relieving pressure points along the back
- Improves contact and reduces shadow lines where walls are bowed or rough
- Offers better glue and adhesive contact during installation
- Minimizes the need for filler to close wall or ceiling gaps
Common Usage
- Baseboard Installation: Hugs the wall even when floors are uneven
- Casings for Doors/Windows: Offers a better seal against old plaster walls
- Chair Rail Details: Runs level over inconsistent drywall
- Ceiling Trim Applications: Adjusts more easily in out-of-square corners
