Blade Type

The Petty is your smaller knife for delicate work. Think mincing garlic, trimming up chicken thighs or meats, skinning fruit, and just about anything else the Bunka or Gyuto is too large for. It's an essential part of your knife range and we use ours almost daily.

Steel Type

SG2 is considered by many as the best knifemaking steel in Japan. It gives all the benefits of carbon steel (very long edge retention, general ease of sharpening) without the carbon steel stresses of maintenance. It'll hold an edge for a long time, and can quickly and easily be refreshed on a whetstone or ceramic honing steel.

Care Information

This knife is made with a stainless steel and is easy going and low on maintenance. It has high chromium content, meaning it is generally considered safe to leave wet on the board for short periods of time. is still best practice to not leave this knife to air dry as it's stain-less not stain-none! Wipe down after washing the knife and store away from any sources of moisture.
