Made in Japan, the Taiga series is forged from AUS-10 which proves to be a versatile stainless steel, effectively combining hardness for prolonged edge retention with robust corrosion resistance. It strikes a favorable balance, avoiding excessive delicacy or susceptibility to chipping. Consequently, it maintains sharpness over an extended period and requires easy maintenance.

Petty knives are a mix between slicing and paring knives known as the ideal blade for most food preparations that require added precision. They feature scalloped edges and blades that are slightly longer than standard paring knives. Heavily used by chefs for their sharp edges, the petty is very efficient for slicing fruits, vegetables, meats or poultry and even mincing garlic, onions and delicate herbs.
