About Utility / Petty Knives

Petty knives are a small general-purpose knife that is used for peeling, shaping and slicing fruit and vegetables. It is also used for chopping herbs and making garnishes.  The knife is very nimble and easy to control because of its small size and narrow blade. It is therefore the ideal knife for making precise cuts.

    Care Instructions

     Care and Use Instructions

    • Suitable for use on meat, fish and vegetables.
    • Do not use on frozen foods or bones.
    • Only use natural wood or plastic cutting boards. Never use stone, glass or other rigid cutting surfaces.
    • Hand wash with warm soapy water, rinse clean and dry after each use.
    • Avoid prolonged immersion in liquids (water, solvents, etc).
    • Do not clean in the dishwasher.
    • Sharpen using a whetstone or a quality knife sharpener.
    • Store your knife in a dry place.
    • As a minimum, wipe the blade with oil, 3 to 4 times a year to stop rust forming (more often if near water).
    • Given the right conditions, any steel can rust. If you are in a humid climate or coastal region it is important to keep your knife’s blade protected with a quality knife oil. We recommend Tsubaki oil (Japanese Camellia Oil) which has been used for centuries by Japanese knife makers to protect all types of steel.
