Holbein 1066 Painting Knife

Hand-forged in Seki Japan, these exquisite knives reflect skills honed over centuries of sword making.  All Holbein knives are made from one piece of steel, a most important specification in the creation of predictable balance and adequate strength for years of reliable use. The 12 degree neck angle will allow the artist to hold the knife normally without point contact with the canvas surface.

Series 1066 Knives are hand-forged stainless steel blades mounted in hardwood handles.

Series 1066S are rust-proof stainless steel blades for use with oil color, water soluble oil color, acrylic, watercolor, gouache and poster color.
