Spyderco Murray Carter Collection Petty

A Petty knife is the Japanese equivalent of a Western paring knife. It is designed for intricate, small-scale tasks like peeling fruits, trimming vegetables, or mincing herbs, offering more agility than a larger chef's knife.

CTS BD1N is a high-carbon, nitrogen-enriched stainless steel that strikes a great balance between edge retention and corrosion resistance. It is easy to maintain and holds a sharp edge well, making it a reliable choice for daily food preparation.

Yes, the traditional Japanese octagonal wa-style handle is designed to provide a secure, ergonomic grip. It feels natural in the hand and offers excellent control, which is particularly helpful when you are performing detailed cutting tasks.

This knife features a full-flat grind, which creates a very thin, efficient edge. This geometry reduces friction as the blade passes through food, allowing for precise, clean cuts with minimal resistance.

No, we strongly recommend hand washing and drying this knife immediately after use. Dishwashers can damage the edge and the handle material over time, and the harsh detergents can cause corrosion even on high-quality stainless steel.
