The distinction between a palette knife and a painting knife primarily lies in their design and intended use.

Palette Knife
Purpose: A palette knife is primarily used for mixing paint on a palette. It is not designed for applying paint directly to a canvas.
Design: Palette knives typically have a straight handle and a long, blunt blade that is relatively stiff. This rigidity makes them ideal for mixing and scraping paint but unsuitable for painting techniques where flexibility is needed.
Material: They are often made from metal or plastic, with metal versions being more durable and effective for scraping.

Painting Knife
Purpose: In contrast, a painting knife is specifically designed for applying paint to a canvas. It allows for more expressive techniques and can create various textures and effects.
Design: Painting knives feature a more flexible blade and often have a deeply angled handle. This design helps prevent the artist’s knuckles from touching wet paint while working on the canvas. The blades of painting knives are usually thinner and may come in various shapes, allowing for greater control and detail in application.
Flexibility: The flexibility of a painting knife is crucial for laying down paint smoothly and with sensitivity, which is not possible with the stiffer palette knife.

In summary, while both tools are essential for artists, the palette knife is best for mixing and scraping, whereas the painting knife excels in applying paint and creating textures.
