This blade is forged from 9cr18mov steel, a high carbon stainless steel known for taking a wicked edge as well as its corrosion resistance. These knives sport a classic Japanese wa handle that puts most of the knife’s weight in the blade, allowing the knife to do more of the work. 3-layer full-body lamination with a hammer finish.
From Knifewear: “This is the knife for smaller jobs that are done on a cutting board. Perfect for slicing shallots, cutting herbs, and boning smaller proteins. Additionally, Petty knives are an indispensable tool for those who feel uncomfortable wielding a larger chef knife.”
