An In Depth Look

Blade Type
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
Steel Type Read

Japanese Blue Super Steel, an elite variant of the "Aogami" series, is a high-carbon steel alloyed with chromium, tungsten, and added vanadium. This composition enhances its wear resistance, edge retention, and overall toughness. It will still rust if left wet for too long, but not as quickly as any of the other carbon steels. Favored in fine knife crafting, Blue Super Steel is renowned for producing exceptionally sharp and durable Japanese knives.

Care Information
Care Information Read

Hand wash only, never put in a dishwasher. Dry immediately after washing. Store on a magnetic knife strip or in a saya. Sharpen on a whetstone when the blade dulls. Read our full maintenance guide for more information.

Nao Yamamoto blue super petty knife 135mm - quince

Beautiful knife! Super light weight, plenty sharp right out of the box. I really enjoy using it for my finer knife work during service, takes little room on my station. Definitely pleased with this knife! This is my 2nd knife I've purchased from chefs edge and it did not disappoint. Neither did their service. Speedy shipping great prices on fantastic products! Between this and my local knife shop, I feel like I'm well covered for tools for work!

Cheers,
Mike

I BARELY EVER WRITE REVIEWS

as the title suggests I legit never write reviews, unless I’m incentivised by a discount code or a better deal. However chefs edges service is such a pleasant one that I feel like I have to.

The attention to detail, the care and the obvious genuine interest in customer service is remarkable. If you’re thinking of buying ANYTHING from chefs edge, buy it in confidence knowing your products going to be solid.
