The combination of a traditional Japanese blade and a modern European handle leaves no one indifferent.

Petty is the knife shape that is perhaps most often used with universal shapes like Gyuto or Santoku. The short blade is suitable for many kitchen tasks, especially when processing smaller foods or making extremely precise cuts.

Ginsan (Silver 3) is a stainless steel produced by the Hitachi company. It is one of the favorites for making knives and it has a particularly suitable "Nashiji" finish. This steel is very easy to re-sharpen and retains its sharpness for an extremely long time. In every sense, it resembles Hitachi's famous steels such as Aogami and Shirogami steel, with the fact that, unlike them, it does not rust. The Nashiji ending in translation would denote the texture of the skin of a Japanese pear. It is obtained by a special style of forging, and on the knife next to it you can notice the contrast between the polished and hazy "kasumi" part of the blade.

The handle of this knife is made of red paku wood in the western style we are used to. It fits perfectly in both the larger and smaller hand and provides a sense of comfort and safety without slipping!

Forged by the hand of a master, shaped by the spirit of tradition – Tsunehisa knives.

How to choose the first Japanese knife?

If you are buying your first Japanese knife, the advice is to choose a multifunctional blade shape that will cover the widest range of your needs in the kitchen. This includes Gyuto, Santoku and Bunka. The rule is that bigger people need bigger knives and vice versa.

Japanese knife as a perfect gift

Although in the culture of the Far East it is not recommended to give a blade as a gift because of the connection with cutting off good relations, they also could not resist the perfection of such a gift, so they devised a "trick" that allows them to gift knives without problems. Just ask for one coin from the person receiving the gift and in the eyes of strict superstition spirits it will be a fair exchange. Now no joke, a knife is a gift that unlike other transient things will be remembered forever because it will serve forever.
