This oversized petty knife is a great agile knife for the line cook and home cook alike. Smaller than a Gyuto, it wont get in the way during a busy service. It's thinned edge geometry makes any cut effortless, while the forged spine adds durability. Taller than most petties, it offers just enough clearance for your knuckles.
The blade is paired with a Maple (Dyed & Stabilized) handle, with African Blackwood and white G10. There is my signature tapering along the length of the handle, providing a secure hold when the hand gets wet or oily. This along with Scalloping of the handle end is only offered on my premium knives.

Care information
Care information
The cutting edge is Carbon Steel, so it will rust if not maintained.
Clean with a soft towel and thouroughly dry after use.
Rinse with water or sanitzier after cutting acidic foods such as citrus, tomatoes, or fruit. The acid will discolor the metal.
The handle is of natural wood and should be treating with some consideration.
I recommend Tsubaki Oil to be used with the Blade and Wood, Mineral Oil is an alternative.
Never place in the dishwasher.
