Paladin is a really underrated class, the content that a well geared paladin can solo is kind of shocking to be honest. I've heard SK's can do some similar things but haven't seen or experienced that. If you're interested in doing anything solo at 60 I think paladin is a better choice; pacify, rez, and baby torpor are pretty dang strong on a melee character.
I think 1-50 they exp solo about the same, however post 50 with DW bp the paladin is going to pull way ahead. Soloing to 60 on my paladin was way easier then I thought, the highest SK I have is 52 and its sloggish fear kiting at that point. That's how it felt to me. YMMV.
Both can be strong raiders, but again paladin has the edge with healing abilities. I think if SK's geared more for pulling they would be utilized more, raids always need good pullers. SK's can tank just as well there's no real difference there. I think knights are kind of two sides of the same coin, you can't really go wrong.
