Palette knives are used in the food industry for spreading substances like icing across flat surfaces. The PALK4 comes with a 4 inch flat blade which is popular for its ability to spread food and ingredients quickly and evenly. The large handle fits well in the hand and continues to provide good grip even when wet or coated with powders such as flour. Each knife comes with its own protective sheath to allow for safe storage and protect the blade from build up of dirt or alternatively can be stored in racks, such as our KS1 Wall Mounted Knife Scabbard, when not in use.
