Description
The Kurotori Blacksmith Stainless Steel Petty is a hand-forged Japanese kitchen knife crafted by Hiroshi Kajihara, a 6th-generation blacksmith in Shimanto, Kochi prefecture and his four apprentices. With a mirror-like polished surface and a double-edged blade made from Ginsan No.3 stainless steel, this knife ensures durability and sharpness.
About the Blade Shape: Petty knives are designed for smaller jobs on a cutting board. The ideal blade for detailed tasks such as peeling fruits, slicing shallots, potato peeling, cutting herbs, boning smaller proteins or decorative vegetable cuts. On the other hand, petty knives are an indispensable tool for those who feel uncomfortable wielding a larger chef knife.
