Petty & Paring knives are small utility kitchen knives perfect for small proteins, fruits, and vegetables.
This blade is made of Shirogami #1 (White Steel #1) with excellent sharpness and durability. White steel has increased carbon content and reduced impurities, making for an incredible blade and increased hardness, similar to ancient katana. With few impurities and a high carbon content, this type of knife can have excellent sharpness and is easy to re-sharpen.
This blade needs to be cared for more than stainless steel as it will rust easier, water should be removed immediately.
*Please do not cut bone or frozen food. It may cause the knife to chip or other damaged.
