Yoshihiro Kurouchi Stainless Clad Nashiji High Performance SLD Petty-Kiritsuke Utility Knife

Our Yoshihiro SLD Stainless Clad Knives are expertly crafted with two layers of stainless steel, offering both durability and protection while preserving the sharp cutting edge. Recommended with a Saya cover for extra protection, these knives are forged from High Performance SLD steel, a new-generation material from Japan engineered to exceed the standards of traditional metals. This steel is highly wear-resistant and possesses a hardness level comparable to carbon steel while offering high stain resistance. This advanced combination results in a knife that maintains sharpness, long-lasting edge retention, and exceptional durability.

Often referred to as a utility knife, the Petty-Kiritsuke is a versatile tool that combines the dexterity of a paring knife with the size and utility of a small chef's knife. Perfect for tasks that need precision but are too large for a paring knife, the Petty-Kiritsuke will quickly become the go-to knife in your kitchen, making it ideal for small, intricate cutting jobs that larger chef knives may not handle as well.

Crafting meals begins with quality ingredients and superior tools like a high-quality chef’s knife, transforming every meal into a unique experience. From dicing and slicing fresh market produce to carving a roast chicken, even the simplest tasks are elevated with a handcrafted knife that is as beautiful as it is functional.
