An In Depth Look

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 Read

VG1 steel is a softer stainless steel used for knives that are getting the rougher treatment. It is renowned for its respectable edge retention and good sharpness. Enriched with carbon and chromium, it has high stainless properties. The addition of cobalt, molybdenum, and vanadium enhances its toughness and durability, making VG1 steel ideal for crafting knives that can handle a little extra punishment.

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.
