Liquitex Professional Freestyle Large Painting Knife, No .1

Just the tool I needed for my palate knife paintings...hard to find in Art supply stores. Arrived quickly when my creative urge came!

perfect flex

I use this painting knife more for mixing acrylic paints than actually for painting -- although I've experimented with that just a bit, too. I've been using it for several weeks now, and I'm extremely pleased with the flexibility of the knife. The underside is very, very smooth.

Love the size and shape of this palette knife.

It's held up well, no paint chipping or peeling, it feels good in my hand, and I'm getting good results with it, but the handle is already loose after about 3 uses. This doesn't compare to other knives I've had for a long time that are still great, and other knives I got at the same time that are still holding up well. As I love a lot about it, and it's shape and size is one of my favorites, it's disappointing.

I got this to replace a palette knife that had snapped after short (and not very forceful) use. The blade is a lot shorter than the one I had but I adapted quickly. I used this for the rest of the school year and it's exactly the same as when I got it, except for some paint on the handle that I never bothered to clean off.My only issue is that it is VERY sharp. I know that some people really like that in a knife, and it makes it very effective for scraping, but my issue was that after some time it would scrape a small hole through my palette and let paint get onto the next layer (wax paper type). Tbh it's not a big deal. The quality and sturdiness make it more than worth it. Great price, too. I usually go for the cheapest product I can find with okay reviews.

I’ve tried to find this shape for over a year in a knife that had flex and no weld ( this is where it breaks first) and this one is perfect, its flexes enough to paint with, the handle is notched for gripping, there is no big weld spot where over time it breaks. And best of all its very affordable about the same price as all the cheap knock off, and off brands I tired. I’m a customer for life for these, the other shapes were excellent too.

Until I started working with this knife, I didn't appreciate how it would change my work style. The forward portion of the blade is fairly springy and this is essential to fine control, especially on canvas and linen. The offset blade makes it much easier to control in broad strokes, and the weight is surprisingly light. Very comfortable grip. Other (longer) knives are much more difficult to control but this one is "just right" in terms of size for larger format works over 1m/36". Fast becoming my favorite knife.

Great size for bigger canvases. sturdy construction.

It is exactly as I wanted to be. It is flexible and long so you could mix your pallet very easy. Thanks!

J’ai aimé Faire des textures autant avec les côtés que le bout du couteau qui est légèrement dentelé.

I use palette knives for painting and I love this product. Very strong, but flexible enough. Very good quality. I like to use this particular type for spreading and mixing and it’s long enough to use it for getting mediums or paints out from bigger tubs.

I used this one more often that all other pallets knives. It's just the right size for me. Feels good and would last for a long time. Totally worth the money.
