Specifications
The Shigeki Tanaka aogami#2 damascus petty knife is a handcrafted Japanese kitchen tool. Forged by Shigeki Tanaka, it features a core of aogami#2 steel, known for its superior edge retention and sharpness. The blade is clad in iron damascus, creating an eye-catching pattern on its surface. This construction combines functionality with aesthetic appeal. Since the blade is iron-clad, the whole blade will develop a patina over time with use, adding character to the knife.
This petty knife excels at precise cutting tasks. It's well-suited for peeling, trimming, and detailed work on fruits and vegetables. The knife also performs well when preparing small cuts of meat or fish.
