At 150mm, this petty from Konosuke offers a bit more reach than the 120mm size while staying just as nimble for trimming, peeling, and garnish prep. The ebony handle and mahogany ferrule give it a deep, rich look that pairs nicely with the bright HD2 blade.
The core is HD2 semi stainless steel, heat treated by Konosuke to about 61 HRC for an edge that sharpens easily and holds up well even after a long work session. Konosuke has worked out of Sakai City for more than 80 years, earning a reputation for quality and performance among serious knife collectors, and the HD line has been one of the best selling single lines at CKTG, known to sell out within minutes of going online.
Care Instructions:HD2 is a semi stainless steel, easier to care for than a fully reactive carbon steel but not entirely rust proof, so hand wash and dry the blade after use rather than running it through a dishwasher. It will develop a light patina over time, or you can keep it polished if you prefer a brighter look. Avoid cutting through bones or frozen foods, and sharpen on quality water stones when the edge needs attention.
