The Shoso Petty knife is a cross between a paring knife and small utility. Great for tasks like mincing garlic and ginger, with a little extra length, this petty knife is a helpful tool in the kitchen.
It’s ideal for rounded and thin-skinned fruits and vegetables. Its small size gives you complete control over the tip and edge of the blade. Can also be used for mincing garlic cloves or ginger.
Shoso is part of Kai’s Seki Magoroku range of knives. Many celebrated swords were born in the Seki area during the Kamakura era. The master craftsman “Magoroku of Seki” harnessed the original techniques to produce swords of great quality, sharpness, strength and beauty. Made in Japan, Shoso are truly elegant and thoughtfully designed knives made entirely from stainless steel to provide a balanced feel in the hand and optimum hygiene. Beautifully finished in a matt satin finish.
