The petty knife is what you reach for when precision matters more than power — peeling, trimming, segmenting citrus, cutting herbs. At 120mm it is short enough to control and long enough to be genuinely useful.
The Imayo carries the same hand-hammered tsuchime finish as its larger sibling. Each dimple reduces drag and stops food from sticking to the blade — a small detail that makes a real difference during repetitive prep work. Molybdenum vanadium stainless steel means it holds an edge well and cleans up easily, no special maintenance required.
Small knife. Serious finish.
