Our White Steel Petty Utility Knife with stainless steel cladding is a versatile tool designed for both home cooks and professionals. Handcrafted with precision for all kitchen tasks, this knife strikes a perfect balance in length, curve, and height, making it ideal for slicing, chopping, and dicing a variety of ingredients such as meat, fish, and vegetables. The White Steel #1 high carbon steel core, with a hardness of HRC 63, provides a razor-sharp edge that maintains its sharpness over extended use.

The stainless steel cladding enhances the blade's resistance to moisture, ensuring durability while preserving its superior sharpness. Often referred to as a utility knife, the Petty knife is smaller than a chef's knife but larger than a paring knife, making it a versatile tool for precise tasks in tighter spaces while also handling larger jobs effortlessly. The Petty will quickly become an indispensable tool in your kitchen.

The difference is immediately noticeable when using a hand-forged Japanese Petty knife. Its sharpness makes it ideal for smaller precision tasks like peeling, trimming, and slicing small fruits and vegetables, while also excelling at larger tasks such as meal preparation. The Petty's ability to intricately carve fruits and vegetables for presentations, as well as perform as a small chef's knife, adds to its versatility.

Care & Sharpening: Traditional Japanese knife-making values a sharp edge that requires attention and care. Always use water whetstones for sharpening and honing. Hand wash and dry the knife immediately after use, especially when working with acidic ingredients. Avoid using the knife on bones, nutshells, or frozen foods to maintain its edge and integrity.
