A 165mm KS petty knife from Masamoto Sohonten. The KS series, a popular choice among collectors and culinary professionals alike, features a high-grade shirogami#2/white#2 core steel and a higher level of refinement compared to the KK series.

The blade seamlessly integrates with a classic d-shaped magnolia handle adorned by a black horn ferrule.

The petty knife, a.k.a. mini-gyuto, serves as a versatile kitchen companion for tasks that require precision. From delicate slicing of small fruits and vegetables to intricate trimming, this knife ensures meticulous control and accuracy.
