Made by Yasuda Hamono in Seki, Japan, this 150mm petty belongs to the maker’s Kotetsu series, pairing distinctive looks with everyday practicality. A nimble companion for smaller kitchen tasks, its slender blade and fine tip offer control when preparing fruit, slicing shallots or trimming boneless meat. The VG-10 core combines lasting sharpness with easy everyday care, while layered Damascus cladding meets a hammered tsuchime finish for a striking mix of flowing patterns and texture. An octagonal pakkawood handle completes this versatile utility knife, equally useful for quick preparation or alongside a larger chef’s knife.
