New Japanese Knife

Recommended Posts

Posted

As the story goes......... 

 

My current Gyuto (chef's knife) is too big for more intricate cutting. My current Petty (utility knife) is too small for some of the bigger tasks. I wanted something in between to use as a general all purpose knife. 

 

This would be considered a tall Petty. 6 3/8" long x 1 3/8 high. Blue #2 core clad in SS for easy maintenance. At only $135 I can use this for an all round kitchen beater knife. Cheap enough so I won't cry if it gets a little beat up along the way. Starts to dull just throw it back on the sharpener.

Good looking knife!   Looks like it will fit in the middle nicely.  Who is it made by?

It's a Yoshimitsu, 165 mm petty. Definitely not a high end knife. With a Blue #2 core it should perform even if it's not a looker.
