Crafted by one of the absolute legends of the Takefu Knife Village, this masterfully forged piece showcases the distinct, rugged artistry of Master Takeshi Saji. As a certified Traditional Craftsman with over fifty years of experience in Echizen, Saji is world-renowned for blending traditional multi-layered forging techniques with modern, high-performance steels. His work is instantly recognizable for its bold, rustic aesthetics and exceptional geometry, making his blades highly coveted by professional chefs and serious collectors alike.
This 90mm Petty Paring arrives as a bare blade at our request, offering the ultimate canvas to pair a master-level forge with a custom handle of your own choice. Forged with a premium VG10 stainless steel core hardened to 60-61 HRC, it delivers an incredibly crisp, long-lasting edge without the demanding maintenance of a high-carbon blade. At a compact 90mm, this ultra-nimble blade is specifically optimized for intricate, detailed tasks, offering maximum control when peeling fruits, coring vegetables, and executing delicate, off-the-board hand work.
The standout feature of this model is its striking Kuroshiage finish, where the dark, unpolished scale from the forge is left intact and etched for heightened contrast. This textured, rustic surface doesn't just give the miniature profile a powerful, aggressive visual presence—it also creates pockets of air that keep small, sticky ingredients from clinging to the steel. With its laser-thin grind and exceptionally tight handling, this blade perfectly balances hyper-precise performance with a dramatic, low-maintenance aesthetic.
