Moritaka has been crafting hand forged blades to exacting standards for over seven centuries. The amount of skill, tradition, and knowledge gained and transferred through the generations of Moritaka Hamono smiths is formidable and brought to bear in the production of this medium sized petty. Sporting 50/50 convex grinds and a superbly treated core of Aogami Super, these kurouchi finished blades are not only exceptional performers, but represent extreme value given the hand crafted nature and premium steel offered up in the Supreme series.

Excellent knife, lighter than I expected. Came with a cool blurb about the very interesting past of Moritaka. The best part however was in the notes I asked if there was a saya for this knife as I didn't see an option being sold bt CKTG. They replied they do not carry one, however when I received the knife they included a knife guard free of charge. Just an excellent touch to the already exciting event of receiving a new knife.

This is simply a wonderful knife. The steel is AMAZING and sharpens well on my Shapton stones. Perfect for work doing prep on a line in close quarters and glides through product. Will definitely be purchasing another Moritaka when needed. Definity a must to have in your kit!

This is a wonderful knife and it is my third Moritaka. This Supreme 165mm Petty has an excellent balance, the thickness if its spine support the knife very well. And of course, it is super sharp. My first Moritaka came with a beautiful rosewood handle, if they are continuing the use of the same kind of wood on their handles, that would be a 5 stars knife easily.

When I ordered I was a bit apprehensive about the kurouchi finish. But when I opened the box it was beautifully rustic. It was screaming sharp ootb. It feels great in my large hands. It has just enough height that I can use it on the board with a pinch grip. I put a 12 degree bevel on it and it chops and slices with no wedging or and minimal sticking. After a couple of weeks on onions, tomatoes and some proteins the exposed edge is developing an attractive blue patina. This is a great utility knife that fits nicely between your small petty and gyuto.Highly recommended.
