Tsunehisa Aogami Super Kurouchi Tsuchime Petty 150mm

The Tsunehisa Aogami Super Kurouchi Tsuchime Petty 150mm is a compact Japanese utility knife for trimming proteins, preparing fruit, slicing small vegetables, and other detailed kitchen work. Its narrow 150mm-class blade offers more reach than a paring knife while remaining precise and easy to control.

The cutting core is Aogami Super carbon steel with stainless cladding. Aogami Super can take a refined edge and offers strong edge retention, while the stainless cladding reduces maintenance on the sides of the blade. The exposed carbon-steel edge remains reactive and should be washed by hand and dried immediately after use.

The Kurouchi Tsuchime finish combines a dark forged surface with a hammered texture. A Morado rosewood Wa handle with a maple ferrule keeps the knife light and comfortable in hand. Avoid bones, frozen foods, twisting cuts, and hard cutting surfaces.
