RGM Italian Plus Painting Knife, 20

Nice range of shapes and sizes. Seems well made, pliablant and springy, but not like a wet noodle. Flexi enough to mix well, firm enough for gentle scraping. The smooth handles are made with some kind of fragrant wood - guessing rosewood cuz the smell reminds me of rosaries or a monastery, which I find pleasing. The scent isn't lasting, but was noticeable upon first opening up the package. Would buy again. Thumbs up!

I have a number of painting knives, but this one is particularly sweet. Lightweight, and very springy blade which gives you fine control over tooling marks and small details. Very well made. I find the flat tip is much more useful than I had expected. If you do knife work, get this one! I use it exclusively with heavy body acrylics, but it is equally good for oil.

This palette knife is designed well. It is medium sized with a nice shape blade, and good flexibility. I like using it for mixing oil paints on my palette. The size is perfect for this. Some palette knives do not bend well but this one has the right amount of give to make it a great tool.

I have two other RGM knives I use for mixing oil paint. I like this one because I can easily scoop out paint I've saved from little containers. The flat tip makes it so easy, and I don't waste valuable pigments. The blade flex is perfect.... not overly stiff and not super bendy. The handle, like all RGM's, is solid wood and attached to the metal part well. Leave it to the Italians!

Hand wash before use, natural dry and found the coating on the handle was gone. After one week of use, most of the words on the handle barely can see.Quality of the knife (Silver part) is good, soft and easy to handle not like the other brand are hard that make it difficult to paint.

I couldn’t mix paint for the life of me and couldnt figure out why, until I bought this knife. It’s great quality and has a wonderful bend to actually be able to mix my oil paints, unlike the knife I was previously trying to work with. The handle is lovely, too.

It's everything I'd hoped it would be. It's comfortable to hold and easy to manipulate. I use it mostly for color mixing but have had success also with using it as a painting tool. I seriously highly recommend this knife. You need this in your painting tool kit!!!

This knife was recommended to me by Michele Byrne who is an outstanding plein air palette knife painter. She was right in recommending it. It is a terrific painting knife!The blade on the knife is very flexible and is easy to manipulate for painting or for mixing paints. I have a pretty good collection of palette knives and this is now my favorite.In addition to the flexibility, the finish on the blade is perfect. It is very easy to clean because of the smooth finish. Plus it just looks good.The shape and size are perfect for painting.This palette knife specifically, and RGM in general, are now my go-to palette knives!
