ABSTRACT:
An easy to hold, safe, single hand operated, foldable, multi-purpose tool, particularly for use during painting for performing a variety of tasks, such as scraping, spreading, cleaning, cutting, sawing and the like, encountered during painting operations. The tool includes an elongate handle having a longitudinal axis, top and bottom longitudinal edges, and first and second opposite ends. A blade is secured to the first end of the handle, with the blade including first and second longitudinal edges and a distal edge extending between the first and second longitudinal edges. The first longitudinal edge of the blade is composed of a plurality of first linear edge sections, with one of the first linear edge sections extending along an axis that does not intersect the handle or any portion of the blade and which extends below the bottom longitudinal edge of the handle at an acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis. The design of the blade prevents scraping of a user's knuckles while gripping the handle and using the tool.
