This handmade Damascus petty knife features a forged Damascus steel blade and a walnut wood handle, designed for precision cutting, detailed prep work, and controlled slicing in both professional and home kitchens.
The petty knife serves as a precision utility blade in Japanese kitchen workflows. Its compact size allows controlled trimming, peeling, slicing, and detail work that larger chef knives cannot perform easily. This knife complements full-size blades such as our hand-forged Damascus Gyuto chef knives, creating a complete and efficient kitchen setup.
Forged Damascus Steel Blade
The blade is hand-forged from layered Damascus steel. This forging method produces a strong cutting edge and a distinct flowing pattern across the blade surface. The layered construction improves durability while maintaining sharp cutting performance for detailed kitchen tasks.
Compact Petty Knife Profile for Precision Tasks
The narrow blade and fine tip allow accurate control during peeling, trimming, and slicing. This profile improves precision when working with fruits, herbs, small vegetables, and boneless meats.
Full Tang Construction for Strength and Stability
The full tang design extends through the handle, improving balance and structural integrity. This construction ensures stable handling and long-term reliability during regular kitchen use.
Walnut Wood Handle for Comfort and Control
The walnut wood handle provides a secure and comfortable grip. Its ergonomic shape improves handling control while maintaining proper balance between blade and handle. This same handle quality is used across our Damascus kitchen knife collections, trusted by professional chefs and collectors.
Handmade Craftsmanship
Each petty knife is individually forged, shaped, and finished by hand. This process ensures proper blade alignment, cutting precision, and consistent performance.
