At 165mm, it's compact and agile - quick through herbs, precise on smaller ingredients, and comfortable for extended prep sessions. VG1 stainless holds a sharp, long-lasting edge with minimal maintenance - no rust risk, easy to sharpen on Japanese water stones. The tsuchime hammered finish reduces drag and prevents food from sticking to the flat.
