Makoto Sakura 135 Petty

Makoto Petty 135mm

The first Makoto release in Australia, powder steel petty knife with a superfine edge. An excellent blade for precision cutting but tough/strong tasks should be avoided.

Makoto Sakura Series

Makoto has created a knife series that will make you rethink your cutting style. Ridiculously sharp, the Sakura series has an ultra-fine edge and excels in slicing with pinpoint accuracy. 

With razor sharpness also comes responsibility, these knives can't handle abuse and require lighter handling. If you're too rough with these knives or cut through the wrong ingredients you will no doubt chip the edge. 

However, if you're after a truly razor sharp knife and are au fait with the care disclaimers, you will rave about these knives. They are superb cutters.

Handles are an understated shade of cherry wood "Sakura" with tan pakkawood bolsters, very easy on the eye.

• Powder steel (stainless) for advanced edge retention
• 50:50 symmetrical edge grind for left/right handers
• Japanese style "wa" handles in raw cherry wood for secure grip
• Strictly limited production

Chef's Armoury are the official importers of Makoto Kurosaki knives in Australia.

Knife care for stainless steel knives

• Never put in the dishwasher.
• Dry thoroughly after handwashing and do not store unless fully dry.
• 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.
• Use Japanese waterstones to sharpen your knife.
