Yoshihiro Stainless Clad Nashiji Ginsan High Carbon Stain Resistant Steel Petty Utility Knife

Recommended to purchase with the Custom-Cut Saya Knife Cover Sheath. Forged from Ginsan steel, our Nashiji Stainless Clad Ginsan series blends traditional Japanese craftsmanship with modern metallurgy to produce knives of outstanding quality. Known for its high-carbon properties combined with stain-resistant elements, Ginsan steel provides peace of mind in fast-paced kitchen environments. Crafted with a Nashiji finish, this knife showcases a rustic, textured look enhanced by a stainless steel cladding. It is elegantly complemented by a handcrafted Black-Blue Pakkawood full-tang handle, secured with three stainless steel rivets for both durability and a comfortable grip. A protective wooden sheath, known as a Saya, can be added to protect the knife while enhancing its aesthetic when stored. This is a favorite among chefs seeking a high-performance knife that withstands long hours of prep without the worry of frequent sharpening or staining.

The Petty knife, often described as a versatile utility knife, sits between a chef's knife and a paring knife in size, ideal for tasks that require more dexterity than a larger chef's knife but are too big for a paring knife. This hand-forged Japanese Petty knife offers unparalleled sharpness for precision tasks like peeling, trimming, and slicing small fruits and vegetables, while also tackling larger tasks that require a smaller chef's knife. Its razor-sharp edge makes it perfect for intricate garnishes and beautiful vegetable presentations, as well as general meal preparation. Handcrafted by skilled artisans in Japan, this knife combines artistry and functionality. Please hand wash with a mild cleanser to maintain its edge and beauty.
