Specifications
The Nigara tsuchime SG2 kiritsuke petty 150mm is a handcrafted Japanese utility knife forged in Hirosaki, Aomori. This stainless steel petty features an SG2 powdered steel core in sanmai construction with stainless cladding and a tsuchime (hammered) finish.

This kiritsuke petty handles precision work like peeling, trimming, and slicing small ingredients, with the angled tip providing access for detailed cuts. The full stainless construction makes it easy to maintain. The western-style resin handle features mosaic pins for both comfort and aesthetic appeal.

Why is the blade length different from the displayed size? The size in the product title is a nominal reference used by knife makers. The actual blade can be slightly longer or shorter due to handcrafting and traditional sizing. Each product page lists the exact measured length.
