The petty is a knife which hovers around the size of something equivalent to a western paring/ utility knife. Essentially it’s a nice, nimble, small knife which is an invaluable addition to anyones knife roll. Ground thin with a nice tip these Nihonko pettys are truly versatile, being more than capable of taking on detailed tasks whilst also up to peeling, finely slicing garlic and even tackling larger veg. Along with a chef knife they’re the most useful knife in the kitchen.


This particularly petty is constructed from SK carbon steels and finished with a riveted Yo (western) style handle. Carrying a lower price tag and less pizzaz than it’s hand forged counterparts the Nihonko range could easily be written off, but we’ll champion it all day long, with It’s lovely thin profile and excellent sharpenability these knives are a truly excellent choice for professionals, enthusiastic home cooks and those looking to dip their toe into the world of Japanese knives.
