This petty utility knife features a Kurouchi finish on stainless steel cladding, combining traditional style with modern durability.

Kurouchi, meaning "Black-Forged,"� gives the blade its natural, rustic look while protecting it from rust and wear.

The blade's core is Blue Steel #2, hardened to 63-64 Rockwell. This steel holds an edge longer, so you spend less time sharpening and more time prepping.

Its small size makes it ideal for precise tasks like peeling, trimming, and slicing small fruits and vegetables.

The knife has a comfortable octagonal Ebony wood handle, designed for both left- and right-handed users.

Overall, this petty utility knife offers a perfect balance of traditional craftsmanship, sharp performance, and easy maintenance for everyday kitchen use.
