Masakage Koishi Aogami Super Petty Knife 120mm - Japanese High Carbon Steel Kitchen Knife for Precision Slicing, Peeling & Garnishing - Perfect for Chefs, Home Cooks & Fruit Carving

Masakage Koishi Aogami Super Petty 120mm

Crafted in Echizen, Japan, the Masakage Koishi Petty 120mm embodies a perfect balance of performance and elegance. Featuring a stainless steel kurouchi finish, this hammer-forged beauty offers enhanced durability with less maintenance than traditional carbon steel knives. The kurouchi finish at the top not only protects but also adds a striking aesthetic to the knife.

The heart of this knife lies in its edge—crafted from Aogami Super Steel and hardened to an impressive 63-65 Rockwell. While the kurouchi keeps things low maintenance, the blade will develop a patina over time, adding character and enhancing the blade’s cutting abilities.

At 120mm (about 4.75 inches), this petty knife is ideal for more intricate prep tasks. It's a great tool for precision work like mincing garlic, slicing shallots, or cleaning tenderloin. Its balanced size and weight make it a versatile choice for both home cooks and professionals alike.
