Review: A wonderful knife highly recomended. - I recently delved into purchasing Yoshihiro cutlery I have a blue steel damascus kiritsuke by them that I love and deceided to purchase a smaller knife for tasks the 9" kiritsuke was a bit cumbersome for. This was the knife I chose. First of all it is a gorgeous knife. The blade has a lustrous shine with gorgeous detail. The handle adds a very nice accent.Out of the box it was shaving sharp and after a dozen or so uses it remained shaving sharp for a stainless blade it has excellent edge retention. The knife is incredibly light and agile. Being a utility knife its handle doesn't grant the proper clearance for your fingers to do any chopping but it is great for slicing, carving, peeling, or doing fancier knife work. It is a bit long for really intricate detail work so if you plan on making delicate food sculptures or garnishes I recommend their paring knife over the petty utility.
Review: Good slicer, good feel, looks good - This knife is well made. It feels good and looks good. I have not used it enough to know how durable it is, but I am happy with it so far. It is not scary sharp like some knives that make you concerned even to hold them loosely by the handle, but it does have a good sharp edge. For the money, this appears to be a good purchase.

## Features

- Forged and hammered with 46 layers of steel in the Damascus tradition with a VG10 Core, the VG10 Hammered Damascus Series has been a perennial seller, combining performance, beauty, and extraordinary value.
- Sometimes called 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 while handling bigger jobs than a Paring knife can take care of. The Petty will soon become the go to knife in your kitchen.
- The difference will be felt right away when a hand-forged Japanese Petty knife of incomparable sharpness is used for smaller precision tasks such as peeling, trimming, and slicing small fruits and vegetables to handling bigger tasks as a small chefs knife. A razor sharp Petty knife can intricately carve and style vegetables and fruits for beautiful presentations and garnishes, performing just as well for bigger jobs such as preparing meals.
- Proudly made in Japan. This knife is complimented with a traditional Japanese Wa-style handcrafted Octagonal Handle that is lightweight and ergonomically welds to the hand for seamless use. A protective wooden sheath called a Saya is included, which protects the knife and adds to its appearance when not in use. The hammered texture of the blade eliminates friction and keeps food from sticking to the blade.
- Perfect for both commercial kitchens or at home! Traditional Japanese knife making values a sharp edge, which requires attention and care. Sharpening and honing should be done with only water whetstones. Hand wash and dry only, and do so immediately if working with acidic ingredients. Do not use on objects such as bones, nutshells, and frozen foods.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I really like the quality
*by A***A on September 15, 2020*

Not my first purchase of Yoshihiro products.. I got my first and favorite knife as a suggestion from a chef who I was learning from, on a trip to Japan about 12 years ago.. I have been working professionally in kitchens for over 27 years and have gotten to use knives of other chefs from around the world.. Each knife maker and knife has a place and can be a personal choice of what feels right for you.. The blade of this knife is exceptional, the quality is evident as soon as you see it.. The blade is light great for hours of heavy use.. Cuts with amazing accuracy.. As a chef who uses my knives daily I only carry 3 knives with me and 2 are Yoshihiro.. One has been used daily for years and is still quality and keeps a razor edge with a little care.. Would recommend for anyone who is looking for a good quality Japanese knife..
