Kohetsu is our in-house brand which is comprised of eight separate lines of kitchen knives differentiated by different steels and manufacturing techniques. The VG-10 Damascus line is a recent addition to the party, right now comprised of three styles. The baby of the group is this fun and functional petty. At just 80mmm, it is a very small knife. But that smallness translates to big abilities in the kitchen.
The knife is made using a stainless steel called VG-10. Blacksmith Tsukahara-san heat treats the alloy to 60 HRC before cladding it in multiple layers of a softer stainless steel in the san-mai style. The lovely damascus pattern is beautifully etched and slightly matte in appearance. The blade is mated to a finely crafted stainless bolster. The western style handle is made from black Micarta and attached to the tang with 3 stainless pins.
This is a knife that will go places many others will not. It is also super nimble and very controllable. The stiff little blade sharpens up like a razor, so making those intricate garnishes and cuts will become a thing of pleasure and control. We just love this little utensil from the way it works to the way it looks.Brand: Kohetsu

Very thick tang, this is handle heavy, which is nice for controlling such a small blade. Steel is quite hard and holds an edge for a long time. It's easy to roll over the very fine tip if you bang it around so be cautious with it. Damascus is pretty.
