Painting Knife is one ideal painting tool for your great painting. Painting knives are used for painting instead of a brush. Our Painting knife comes in numbers shapes, our painting knife is most commonly made from stainless steel with a wood handle.
Painting with a knife is a bit like putting butter or jam on bread and produces quite a different result to a brush. Painting knives are excellent for producing textured, impasto work and sweeping areas of flat color as well as tiny shapes of color.
A painting knife is most commonly made from metal with a wood handle, and has a large crank or bends in the handle, which takes your hand away from the painting surface and helps keep your knuckles out of the wet paint you've just applied. Painting knives come in numerous shapes (for example pear-, diamond-, or trowel-shaped) and are used for painting instead of a brush. There is, of course, nothing stopping you from using a painting knife for mixing paint on your palette.
Different shaped painting knives obviously produce different effects. For example, a short blade produces angular strokes while a long blade makes it easy to put down sweeps of color. A painting knife with a rounded blade means you're unlikely to ever accidentally scrape a hole into a canvas, but a you won't be able to scratch into the paint as effectively for sgraffito effects.
Note that although it's called a "knife", it isn't designed to cut like a sharp knife or craft knife. Rather a painting knife or palette knife is a blunt-edged knife, like a butter knife, unless you specifically select one with a blade that has a sharp point.
