This is a Nigara VG10 Damascus petty in the tsuchime finish, a small utility knife for fruit, shallots and other small work around the kitchen.
Nigara forges the line in Aomori around a VG10 stainless core hardened to the HRC59 to HRC61 range, clad in softer stainless Damascus in a sanmai construction. The tsuchime finish is a hand-hammered texture, and the octagonal black chacate handle keeps the balance neutral in the hand.
Nigara's listing carries the knife's measurements in its spec table and describes the line as budget friendly, easy to look after and a little on the thicker side.
Wash with a neutral detergent after use and wipe it dry rather than putting it in the dishwasher, and sharpen it regularly on a waterstone.
Most of our products are handmade in Japan, and sometimes the one that you receive maybe slightly different to the photo. This is very common and in no way it will affect the performance of the product.
