Petty Japanese kitchen knife Shigeki Tanaka Ginsan ST-8701 12cm

This Japanese Petty knife by master craftsman Shigeki Tanaka is the ideal tool for delicate kitchen work. It excels at peeling vegetables and fruit, slicing small items, and preparing ingredients. The Ginsan (Silver 3) steel blade delivers superior sharpness, comparable to carbon steel, while also offering high corrosion resistance. The unique nashiji (pear peel) finish not only gives the knife an authentic look but also prevents food from sticking. The ergonomic European-style red handle ensures a comfortable and secure grip. Finely ground and heat-treated blades deliver incredible sharpness for precise and clean cuts. To maintain the knife's perfect condition, we recommend hand washing, immediately wiping dry, and storing it in a dry place. Please note that this knife is not intended for chopping bones, hard, or frozen foods to avoid damaging the cutting edge. The Japanese petti knife Shigeki Tanaka weighs 130 g.
