“The tool worked well for scraping down walls prior to painting, and I loved the hidden bits that allowed me to easily remove light switches and electrical covers without switching tools.”
“I like the heavygauge steel blade. The Hyde 14-in-1 Multi-Tool is great to keep in a back pocket for quick scraping, prying or unscrewing tasks.”
