What owners praise

- Thin blades provide better detail than bulkier models
- Rust proof ABS plastic construction
- Factory set tension requires no manual adjustment
What to know first

- High strength ABS plastic is rustproof and non-marring
- Ten inch length covers most standard architectural moldings

What to know first
