Japanese Kitchen Knife | Petty & Paring Knife
The Petty Knife is a smaller Japanese utility knife generally used for precision knife work and fine slicing.
Petty knives are narrow but can range quite widely in length, from smaller profiles that can be used as paring knives, through to longer models that verge on Sujihiki (Japanese slicing knives). Whatever size you choose, the petty knife is extremely useful in the kitchen, the perfect partner to your Gyuto.
