There was mention of this tool on another group and when I looked up
the web site I saw that this tool can cut the bottom off architrave and
skirting.
I have always avoided putting hardwood floors down because I have never
wanted to take the skirting off but it looks as though this tool would
do the job.
Has anybody used one and can I get them anywhere other than the
internet, Simbles in Watford, my local tool stockists don't sell them.

Is there a clone around. This is a tool that is on my wish list. It is
so
versatile it covers about tools. At £60 or so I still think it is
worth
it. But someone must have made a look-alike by now.

Not a clone, but I wonder if this would do the skirting-board job (except
at
corners, obviously). I don't know how thick the blade is: presumably OK
for
laminate, maybe a bit thick for vinyl.

Looks a bit lethal: anybody used one (and lived to tell the tale? :-)

Looks good enough to cut the architraves. At £50 cheap enough too.
