The most versatile and essential of all knives a cook can have is a Japanese chefs knife referred to as a Gyuto knife. The Gyuto is a Japanese chefs knife with a curved blade that smoothly rocks backward and forward and has an extended tip for quick chopping that can be utilized to cut meat, fish, and vegetables.
Often referred to as a utility knife, the Petty is a smaller version of a chefs knife but is bigger than a Paring knife. The Petty fits in small places that require more dexterity than bigger chefs knives whilst handling bigger jobs than a Paring knife can handle. The Petty will soon grow to be the go-to knife in your kitchen.
Made in Japan. This knife is complimented with a premium Western Style Take care of that extends to the full tang of the knife and ergonomically welds to the hand for seamless use. The hammered texture of the blade eliminates friction and keeps food from sticking to the blade. Every knife from Yoshihiro is handcrafted by master artisans creating a unique one-of-a-kind work of art.
Traditional Japanese knife making values a sharp edge, which requires attention and care. Sharpening and honing must be done with only water whetstones.
