What to know before you buy

About this knife

  • Petty knives of this 135mm length are small, for detail work and compact boards.
  • It has a Japanese-style (wa) handle: a handle without a metal bolster, set into the blade with a hidden tang.
  • VG-10 is a stainless steel, which resists rust better than carbon steel.
  • It is double-bevel (sharpened on both sides), so it works for left- and right-handed cooks.

Limits to know

  • Like any hard Japanese blade, keep it off bones, frozen food and glass or stone boards.

Written from this knife's catalog record (steel, handle, length, grind). Knife Fit has not tested it; see how we work.

Good to know for beginners

A petty is the small knife for the jobs a chef's knife is too big for: peeling, trimming, shallots, herbs and fruit in hand. 135mm is the most versatile petty length. VG-10 is stainless, so it shrugs off a wet board. The Japanese wa handle is light and puts the balance toward the blade.
