Petty knife is a small Japanese utility knife, commonly used for meticulous kitchen tasks such as cutting, peeling, and trimming small ingredients. Its classic pointed tip and sharp edge provide exceptional precision for detailed work and small-scale slicing.

With its nimble 120mm to 150mm blade, the Petty knife establishes itself as a specialist utility knife for precision tasks. This compact size sets it apart from the larger Gyuto and Santoku, offering the ultimate control needed for delicate in-hand work and intricate slicing. It excels exactly where bigger knives become too cumbersome.

The Petty knife utilizes high-performance Japanese steels like VG-10 or Aogami to deliver a durable, razor-sharp edge with superior retention.

To preserve its performance, the Petty knife requires a crucial care routine: its delicate tip needs protection from any prying or twisting, and it thrives on immediate hand-washing, drying, and regular honing.
