Yoshikane SKD Hammered Kiritsuke 210

But the idea that a Yoshi can be too flat or delicate to use is triggering the sheet out of me. 2nd to best knife ever!

First best being ... ?

Awesome, thanks for the info! Off to grab one right now (that's assuming they aren't super rare).

Gengetsu of course. Best off the shelf knife available. Everything I love about Yoshi with a little more heft.

YMMV

nkd, epic haul!

So i'm not quite sure people do with a "Petit Gyuto 150mm" knife. Its not very small like my 120mm Petty. Its taller, and also a good bit longer, and also thicker. (aritsugu B2 99/1 petty)

150mm is the most popular size petty by far - but I don't understand it either. A proper petty is 180mm

We mainly use ours for fruits, and it’s my go-to when I want to do lots of draw cuts through proteins like flank steak for stir fry. The low height makes draw cuts easier on the arm, and the low profile reduces sticking. In general I hardly ever touch a petty though.

Yeah I lean to longer too. Petties with low blade height are good for butchering and trimming meat. Petties with high blade height is... not for me. Could only really see myself using those as a cheese knife.
