Petty Knife: Essential Japanese Paring Knife
The petty is the Japanese equivalent of the Western-style paring knife, typically a bit longer. Once you've used one, you may never want to go back. It is perfect for tasks like capping strawberries, peeling, turning, or coring vegetables, and smaller butchery tasks like preparing chicken, small fish, or deboning a pork shoulder.
