About the Shape - This is the knife for smaller jobs that are done on a cutting board. Perfect for slicing shallots, cutting herbs, and boning smaller proteins. Additionally, Petty knives are an indispensable tool for those who feel uncomfortable wielding a larger chef knife.
About Haruyuki Zanpa- The Haruyuki Zanpa is named for ocean waves, its whirlpool pattern reminiscent of the swirling waters. A core of AUS-10 stainless steel allows the Zanpa to take a blazingly sharp, yet durable edge and is sandwiched between two pieces of spiral damascus. The minimalist oak handle is reminiscent of a fishing boat bobbing in the waves, the perfect complement to this eye-catching blade.
