Morihei Hisamoto Hagane 150mm Petty Carbon Steel Pakka Handle

Old style forged carbon steel Kanto petty. These represent the original gyuto style whose design remained relatively unchanged for decades. We are big fans of thin carbon steel gyuto like this, they cut smoothly, sharpen easily and are not terribly delicate if a few basic rules are followed.

Being forged these have a longer edge life and a wider range of finishes it works at, while we are a big fan of stamped Carbon Steel Nihonkou style knives these are a step up in quality that is commensurate with the higher price.

These have a strong right hand bias to the face of the blade and are not recommended for left handed users.
