Can I use your tools to trim polyurethane insulation spray foam?

We have many contractors using our Bow Cutters to cut PU spray foam, but, this foam gives off toxic fumes when cut with a hot wire so an appropriate respirator and plenty of ventilation are necessary.

We only use our knife for 1 musical production a year and Bible School in the summer, so it is not used very heavily, and we love it, BUT we have had to replace it twice in the last year. At this time last year, we bought a new one because ours stopped heating. It was old so it had seen its time come and go, but the replacement only lasted a year. That was unexpected.

This Knife is even better then I have used before. I thought the other knife helped but this makes it go twice as fast to cut into the foam! Love this more!

We have three of these tools and they are the most popular with our build crew. We use these in our workshops and out students are always amazed on the ease of use and usefulness. Our favorite go-to foam cutting tool.

Without a doubt, the best "have to have it carved now" tool I have ever used. This knife made short work of the hundreds and hundreds of cuts I had to make for the Supergirl MagicWheelchair build I did for San Diego Comic Con. I would never have gotten the project done in time without this tool.

The temperature control dial and variety of blades make this by far my favorite tool in my arsenal.

Just wanted to let you know, I'm loving my new Industrial knife. So I'm promoting it all over the place on the Halloween groups when the topic comes up :-). It's awesome!
