The Tetsujin kasumi aogami #2 petty knife 165mm is handcrafted by Toru Tamura and sharpened by Naohito Myojin. It features a core of aogami#2 steel, acclaimed for its sharpness and lasting edge retention. The kasumi finish, beautifully executed by Myojin, offers a striking contrast between the matte iron cladding and the mirror-polished core steel, highlighting the knife's refined craftsmanship.

At 165mm, this petty knife is designed for those who prefer a slightly longer blade than the typical petty knife. It is ideal for both home cooks and professional chefs, offering enhanced control for precise tasks such as peeling, slicing, and intricate food preparation. The additional length affords more versatility, making it an excellent choice for a range of kitchen tasks.
