The Nakagawa damascus aogami #1 petty knife 150mm, forged by Sakai-based blacksmith Satoshi Nakagawa, is a handcrafted Japanese knife of exceptional quality. At its core is aogami#1 steel, renowned for its superior edge retention and sharpness. The blade boasts a striking damascus finish, adding both aesthetic appeal and highlighting the meticulous craftsmanship. Sharpened by Naohito Myojin, this knife ensures a excellent cutting performance.

Designed as a "mini-gyuto," the petty knife is versatile and ideal for detailed and intricate kitchen tasks such as peeling, slicing, and mincing smaller fruits, vegetables, and herbs. Its smaller size offers maneuverability and control, making it a perfect complement to larger chef's knives in the kitchen.
