KC-854 Minamo-kaze Wa-Petty 135mm Kitchen Cutlery Knife

The KC-854 Minamo-Kaze Wa-Petty knife features a 63-layer Damascus w/high carbon stainless steel core blade. The handle is composed of red wood with black micarta ring. The wa-petty knife is a Japanese-style paring/utility knife. It is the perfect tool in the hand for peeling and preparing fruits and vegetables, as well as beautifying dishes with elegant cuts and garnishes. It can also be used as a petite chef knife, which is ideal for smaller hands. The wa style is distinguished by the lightweight octagonal handle and a shift to a heavier tip, which balances the knife differently for efficient performance.

The Minamo-Kaze Series:

Minamo-kaze is named for the beautiful scenery which occurs in nature when "a pleasant wave pattern is created on a calm water surface by a soft breeze". The blade is 63 layers of damascus w/Japanese high carbon stainless steel core, a high quality material proudly made in Japan. The high grade of razor-sharpness lasts a long time. The handle end is engraved with the Kanetsune Seki brand logo mark "Kumadori". The handles are made of red wood w/black micarta rings. These come in a classy wooden box, showcasing a Japanese tradition.
