great little workhorse
I picked up the Dexter 2" Heavy Blade Linoleum Knife for a flooring project, and it turned out to be a great little workhorse. The short, heavy carbon steel blade feels solid and slices through linoleum cleanly without tearing or dragging. It’s got that nice “pull cut” control that makes trimming around edges and corners easy. The wood handle gives it a classic, no-nonsense feel—comfortable in hand, even after a while. You can tell it’s American made; it feels durable and well-built, not flimsy like some of the cheaper imported versions I’ve tried before.
