The Kuraitabi series consists of knives made from 9Cr18MoV stainless steel, renowned for its durability, and featuring pakkawood handles designed in a square shape to provide users with enhanced grip and traditional aesthetics. With its thicker edge, this petty is often utilized as a versatile blade for ones that don't like large chef knives, and including applications such as boning.
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.
