Exquisite Precision for the Discerning Chef

The Kazoku Aogami Super Yo Petty 13.5 cm is a luxurious version of the classic vegetable knife, designed for those who demand extreme sharpness and unparalleled performance. Crafted from Aogami Blue Paper Super Steel, this knife represents the pinnacle of cutting technology. Enhanced with chromium, tungsten, and carbon, this blade is tougher, stays sharp longer, and delivers exceptional precision for all your kitchen tasks.

The core of the knife is made from Aogami Blue Paper Super Steel, known for its remarkable hardness (63-64 HRC), which allows it to be sharpened to an incredibly fine edge that lasts longer than most steels. This advanced steel is protected by two layers of stainless steel with a Kurouchi finish, which not only enhances rust resistance but also adds a rugged aesthetic. The Tsuchime (hammered) finish further improves the knife’s performance by reducing food stickiness, allowing for smoother and more efficient cuts.

The ergonomically shaped pakkawood handle ensures a secure and comfortable grip, even during prolonged use. Its design is tailored for precision, making it a perfect tool for the serious chef who enjoys the art of cooking with the sharpest knives.

Carbon Steel
Carbon steel knives require more care than stainless steel but sharpen more easily. They can rust without proper maintenance but develop a protective patina over time, adding unique character. Learn more on our page: All about carbon steel.
