Collection: Petty knives

A petty knife is a versatile Japanese utility knife (usually 120-150mm/4.7-5.9") designed for precise, delicate tasks where larger knives would be unwieldy. Perfect for peeling, shaping, slicing, and chopping fruits and vegetables, as well as mincing herbs and creating garnishes. Its compact size and narrow blade provide exceptional maneuverability and accuracy for detailed cutting work, making it an essential complement to larger chef's knives.
