150 Petty By Kurosaki

This 150 petty knife from Kurosaki is for those who subscribe to the idea that even small knives should be a little bit fancy.

  • Hammer forged from clad R2 powder steel
  • Wenge hardwood handles
  • Could probably win the next season of X-factor for good looks alone
  • Kurosaki san's signature random textured finish is highly polished to help with release of food
  • Sharpened to a v-bevel for ease of re-sharpening
  • An ultra sharp cutting experience

  • Do not cut through bones, frozen foods or extremely dense items.
  • Always cut with a smooth action and never twist the blade, sideways pressure will damage the blade.
