Looks like either Goodell has gone under or been bought out, maybe???
Or, I suppose the server could be out for maintenance over the holiday
week but I could find only one distributor that had anything of theirs
in stock and it was just a couple of taping knives.
I've also a really old one of theirs, but recently everything of any
quality I've bought has been Hyde--very similar.

Not trying to be glib here, but I absolutely hate breaking or losing a
well-worn-in putty knife.
Lucky for me, I have a source (Richard) for putty knives of varying
stiffness and handle quality.
It is one of those tools, the feel of which cannot be described. I
also have a small flat pry-bar like that, looks like a WonderBar, but
way smaller.
One of my guys took one of my putty knives and was going to open a can
with it. Two voices, in unison said: "*I* wouldn't do that."
That was pretty funny.
This one is pretty cool, especially for scraping on quartz
countertops... no scratchees.
