| /

The Petty knife is light and thin with a bit of flex to it and is used for peeling, chopping and trimming. Not used in a hammer grip way meaning you don’t chop up and down like a chefs knife due to not having enough clearance for the knuckles. Mostly used for cutting away from the chopping board but is essential for any knife roll and home kitchen. The general size of a petty ranges from 95mm to 150mm but can go up to 180mm but this is considered to be in a slicing categories.

The Misono UX10 knife blade is made of Swedish stain resistant steel and has a hardness Rockwell 59-60. It has a 70/30 bevelled edge to the blade and It also has hardness comparable to carbon steel the knives have a slanted nickel bolster that balances the weight of the blade and handle perfectly. If you are looking for a knife that is extremely sharp, spectacular in appearance and performance, consider the Misono UX10. Misono are very secretive about their knife making process and do not allow you anywhere near their process of knife making. We are obviously aware that the shaping, heat treatment, grinding, polishing and honing take place but there are other steps to the knife making process that we do not know about.
