Blade Type
The Petty is your smaller knife for delicate work. Think mincing garlic, trimming up chicken thighs or meats, skinning fruit, and just about anything else the Bunka or Gyuto is too large for. It's an essential part of your knife range and we use ours almost daily.
Steel Type
SG2 is considered by many as the best knifemaking steel in Japan. It gives all the benefits of carbon steel (very long edge retention, general ease of sharpening) without the carbon steel stresses of maintenance. It'll hold an edge for a long time, and can quickly and easily be refreshed on a whetstone or ceramic honing steel.
Care Information
This knife is made with a stainless steel and is easy going and low on maintenance. It has high chromium content, meaning it is generally considered safe to leave wet on the board for short periods of time. is still best practice to not leave this knife to air dry as it's stain-less not stain-none! Wipe down after washing the knife and store away from any sources of moisture.
Introducing
Makoto Kurosaki
Hailing from the knifemaking region of Echizen, Makoto Kurosaki is the elder brother of Yu Kurosaki and a highly skilled craftsman in his own right. Both brothers began their blacksmithing journey under the legendary Hiroshi Kato, and Makoto continues to refine his craft through close collaboration with some of Echizen’s most respected makers — including Yoshimi Kato and his own brother Yu.
Known particularly for his sharpening and finishing expertise, Makoto brings a quiet precision to every blade he produces. While his work is often understated compared to his younger brother’s bold designs, Makoto’s knives are deeply respected for their balance, clean lines, and uncompromising attention to performance.
Rooted in tradition but focused on refinement, Makoto Kurosaki represents the enduring strength of Echizen craftsmanship — forged through discipline, collaboration, and a lifelong dedication to the blade.
