What is the difference between a scalpel and a knife?
A scalpel is used for precision work such as cutting around decals, where a good clean cut is required. Always try and make sure that you use the scalpel for tasks such as this and it will help to keep the blade sharp.
Whereas a knife is used for any other cutting such as plastic parts, etc.
Both are extremely sharp tools and caution should be exercised when using either. Always think about what you are about to cut and where your fingers are.
