The Shosui series, created by Yaxell, is recognized for its exceptional craftsmanship in producing high-quality kitchen knives in Seki, Japan. These knives possess a captivating design with Damascus layers artfully melded onto a VG10 core, complemented by a stylish handle. Not only are these knives incredibly sharp, but they also offer a comfortable black pakkawood grip, eliminating the need for frequent oiling and waxing.

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.
