{"product_id":"petty2","title":"Chokecherry Petty | 135mm Japanese Utility Knife | Reclaimed High Carbon Steel | Handmade in Canada","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe petty is the small but indispensable workhorse of the kitchen — a versatile utility knife designed for precision and control. The Chokecherry Petty is crafted from reclaimed century-old high carbon sawmill steel, hardened to approximately 61HRC for exceptional edge retention. Its forged distal taper gradually reduces the blade's thickness toward the tip, creating a fine, responsive blade that excels at everything from trimming meat to preparing fruits, vegetables, and herbs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAt 135mm, this petty strikes an excellent balance between the agility of a paring knife and the versatility of a small chef's knife. The 38mm blade height provides comfortable clearance for cutting board work, while its featherlight 69-gram weight makes it exceptionally nimble and comfortable to use.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe traditional octagonal wa handle is crafted from a single piece of locally sourced Manitoba chokecherry, salvaged from a tree felled by an arborist. Rich in natural character, the wood features distinctly different figuring on either side, giving the handle a unique personality from every angle. It's a fitting complement to the reclaimed steel — two materials with histories of their own, brought together in a knife designed for generations of use.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA handcrafted heirloom for the serious home cook or professional chef — built to be used, and built to last generations.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor current production times, please visit our \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/originhandcrafted.com\/pages\/knife-info\" title=\"knife info\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eknife info\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e page.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecs\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBlade: 135mm x 38mm | Reclaimed high carbon sawmill steel | Forged distal taper | ~61HRC\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHandle: Locally salvaged Manitoba chokecherry | Single-piece octagonal wa handle\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight: 69g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOverall length: 26.5cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"accordion\"\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003e\u003ca href=\"#\"\u003e\u003csmall class=\"right\"\u003e▼\u003c\/small\u003eMaterials\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eOur blades are made with high carbon steel.
