This handcrafted petty knife from Echizen, Japan, blends traditional forging with modern powdered steel to create a precise, highly versatile small knife. The compact 135mm blade excels at trimming proteins, peeling fruit, and detail work where control and agility matter most. A subtle hammered finish and visible cladding line add character while helping with food release, and the thin, refined grind delivers clean, effortless cuts.
At the core is SGSTRIX powdered stainless steel, known for excellent edge retention, fine grain structure, and relatively easy sharpening for a high-performance steel. The octagonal wa handle pairs dark wood with a green ferrule and light spacer, providing a balanced, comfortable grip for extended prep. Light, nimble, and beautifully finished, this petty is ideal for cooks who value craftsmanship and performance in a smaller format .
