This Petty knife in Sakai Takayuki's "Ginga" ("Galaxy") series is crafted using ZA18 stainless steel, clad with Cobalt Special steel and heat-treated to 62-63 HRC for superb edge retention. With a beautiful Damascus polishing, the knife has an above average fit and finish for this price range. A nice flat grind and fairly thin behind-the-edge, the cutting performance of this Petty knife is excellent.

Care:

Wash and dry with a soft sponge, and safely store after use. Avoid cutting into bones, frozen foods, hard fruit pits.

Cutting Surface:

Recommended cutting surface: wood, rubberized boards and high-end composites, and quality plastics such as polyethene make acceptable cutting surfaces, and will help protect and prolong knife’s edge. AVOID glass, metal, countertops, and other rigid, non-forgiving surfaces.

Sharpening:

We recommend sharpening all quality Japanese knives on whetstones, as we believe they yield the best results for your knives.
