This petty features a kiritsuke tip which is most unusual in this style of knife. The inclusion of this tip results in a knife with a longer blade length compared to the spine and a tip that is even more delicate than normally found on a petty. Precision-cutting of specialized garnishes is something this knife is made for, along with the usual jobs at which a petty excels.
These are really sweet knives in both looks and performance, all at a bargain price!
