This Petty knife has been forged using a Go Mai (5 layer) construction, the outer cladding being 1095, followed by 15N20 and then 1095 carbon steel for the core. It features a forged distal taper and a brute de forge finish with a deep etch to reveal the layers. The spine and choil have been rounded to ensure comfort whilst using the pinch grip. The octagonal handle was sculpted from a beautiful piece of Beech, paired with an African Blackwood ferrule. All of our handles are finished with a food safe mineral oil and beeswax to protect the natural wood.
Inspired by traditional Japanese knives, the Petty knife is ideal for the smaller tasks on and off the chopping board. It can be used for peeling, slicing or dicing small fruits/vegetables and mincing herbs.
