The SW Washiji series uses Swedish 19C27 stainless steel as its core - a pure, fine-grained steel prized for its edge-taking ability and corrosion resistance, with a stepped grind and tsuchime (hammered) finish that helps reduce food sticking to the blade. Thin but not fragile, this series is well-suited to both professional and home use. The petty knife is the Japanese utility knife - a compact, nimble blade for tasks that require precision: peeling, trimming, segmenting citrus, and fine prep work where a chef's knife is too large. At 135mm it is the most compact petty option, light in hand and easy to control.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare and Maintenance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand wash only - never dishwasher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry immediately after washing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHone regularly on a ceramic rod or fine honing rod\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharpen on Japanese water stones (1000\/3000 grit)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore on a magnetic strip or in a knife block\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Chef \u0026 a knife","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55249126555939,"sku":"T SW Washiji Dama BufHWO petty 135","price":195.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/1819\/3230\/files\/57A2FF87-950C-4390-AD4E-38701BF7A02B.jpg?v=1782121946","url":"https:\/\/chefandaknife.com.au\/products\/tsunehisa-sw-washiji-petty-135mm","provider":"Chef \u0026 a knife","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
