Key features of Traditional RGM Palette Knives:
Stainless Steel Blades: The high-grade stainless steel blades are flexible, durable, and resistant to rust, ensuring long-lasting performance and smooth application. The flexibility of the blades allows artists to achieve precision and control, whether working on detailed areas or creating large, bold textures.
Variety of Shapes: Traditional RGM palette knives come in a wide range of shapes and sizes, including narrow, tapered blades for intricate detail work; rounded blades for smooth blending and soft textures; flat blades for spreading paint evenly; and wide, large blades for dynamic, sweeping strokes and thick layers of paint. Artists can select from an array of knife shapes to suit their specific needs.
Ergonomic Wooden Handles: Each palette knife features a wooden handle that is ergonomically designed for comfort and ease of use. The handles are finished with a sleek lacquer, providing both durability and a professional appearance. These handles ensure a firm, comfortable grip during extended painting sessions.
Nickel-Plated Brass Ferrules: The nickel-plated brass ferrules securely hold the blades in place, preventing loosening or detachment over time. This sturdy construction ensures that the knives maintain their performance even with heavy or frequent use.
