Liquitex 109909 Professional Freestyle Large Painting Knife No. 9

Good quality, nice to handle.

Love this.I use large canvasses and this is lovely to use.I find it balanced for my hand,and as its not too heavy,the edges easily used.

These giant freestyle palette knives are awesome. Very well made. Very solid. Just the right amount of flex in the blade for expressive mark making. Those people who complain that these knives are "too big" must have not read the description, which is perfectly accurate: "large".

Useful for making my own oil paints. I do not wash or soak the handle after reading reviews of peeling paint.

I needed a painting knife that could cover large areas of canvas quickly and this fits the bill perfectly

Very good tools

Arrived today, having fun with it.Flexible, springy and sturdy.It's well balanced but a bit cumbersome for my small hands - I'll soon get the hang of it!Using with oils on wood at present and looking forward to using with acrylics on wood and canvas.I want some more for my larger works now.

I am editing this review as I wrote it when I'd used the item for the first time. I've used it several times now and the black plastic covering is degrading and peeling off. There's a nice wooden handle under there but at the moment it's a mess. It doesn't effect the use of the knife but either coat it in something that doesn't crack and come off, or leave it wood.
