Kyoto Molybdenum Stainless Petty 120 mm

Kyoto All-Stainless Petty 120mm

Seamless one-piece petty knife crafted in Kyoto from molybdenum-alloyed cutlery stainless steel.
Hygienic, precise, and built for everyday tasks — from trimming to peeling and fine garnishes.

The satin-finished blade glides cleanly through ingredients, while the subtly textured surface helps food release smoothly for a consistent rhythm in prep.

Performance

Molybdenum-alloyed stainless steel: Sharp, tough, and resistant to corrosion and chipping.
Convex (hamaguri) double-bevel edge: Smooth entry, clean tracking, and effortless control.
Food-release finish: Minimizes sticking when cutting potatoes, daikon, or other high-starch ingredients.
One-piece construction: Hygienic, lightweight, and perfectly balanced for everyday use.

Craftsmanship

Made in Kyoto, Japan — where nearly 300 years of craftsmanship meet modern sensibility.
Each stage, from heat treatment to grinding and final hand-finishing, is overseen by specialists dedicated to precision and daily ease of use.
An embossed stainless handle provides a confident grip and reduces fatigue during long prep sessions.

Use & Care

• Handwash in warm water and towel dry
• Do not cut frozen foods or hard bones
• Use a sharpening stone, not a honing steel, to re-sharpen your Japanese knives
• Avoid pull-through or roller-type sharpeners, which may change the original edge angle and reduce sharpness over time
