About the Shape - This is the knife for smaller jobs that are done on a cutting board. Perfect for slicing shallots, cutting herbs, and boning smaller proteins. Additionally, Petty knives are an indispensable tool for those who feel uncomfortable wielding a larger chef knife.
About Haruyuki Mugi -These knives are the perfect gateway into Japanese knives and make a perfect gift. They look great, have a familiar feel because of the western style handle and the performance of the steel will blow you away. The hammered surface will break up surface tension allowing the knife to glide easily through the food as you slice and dice.
These are forged out of AUS-8, a stainless steel that is harder than your average kitchen knife but not quite as hard some of the carbon and high-tech steels of Japan. In normal speak, it will keep an incredible edge for a long time but is more durable than most Japanese knives. The handle is made from Pakka wood, a durable material made of wood that has been treated with resin.

"My third Haruyuki knife and first in the Mugi series. With these size knives, push and pull cuts are more common than chopping, so AUS8 steel is perfectly fine. Really nimble and easy to maneuver for detailed work. Stainless makes it easy to maintain."
"Great little helper"
"Was recently gifted our first Japanese knife and I've never used anything like it! When we ran across your store, we had to check it out to add to our collection! It's me newest addiction and we hope to add more pieces to our collection soon! Thanks so much for the excellent service. Your sales associate was passionate about the products and it showed! We will be back!"

"Sharp blade, good weight"
"I bought this as a gift for my son and he loves it!"
"Incredibly versatile size. The edge is fantastic and cuts anything with ease. Finished off with a timeless design and looks…hard to go wrong!"
"love the knife, service was amazing"
"This was one of the few knives that had a more western handle on it which my sister preferred for a gift. Very sharp and nice feel when using. fantastic knife as always. Uncertain on maintaining it as I have not had to sharpen it thus far but after a few months I don't think it will need sharpening until a year or so has gone by."
