I would say knowledge means it is a 100% obvious/ proven fact. Like, I have knowledge that I am female. The grass is green. 2+2=4. Etc.

Belief is when it is not 100% proven fact. I believe my husband loves me, I believe God exists, I believe we evolved from apes, etc.

But you can say it's to the best of my knowledge and that doesn't make it fact it just means you are telling something you believe is based in fact

Also if your signature makes my scrolling mess up "you're tacky and I hate you."
