Description & specifications
The Shun Classic 90 mm K-Tip Petty from KAI is a precision knife that combines Japanese forging tradition and modern steel technology to provide exceptional cutting performance and control. The blade consists of 65 layers of steel around a hard VG-MAX core, resulting in a sharp, durable edge with a hardness of 61 HRC. The short 90 mm K-tip blade is ideal for precision work such as peeling, trimming, and small, detailed cuts, while the asymmetrical D-shaped handle is designed for comfort and precise control for right-handed users. Shun Classic is lighter and thinner than many Western knives, allowing for faster, more precise cuts – but also requires careful handling.

Always wash the knife by hand and avoid the dishwasher. Do not cut hard items such as bones, cartilage, frozen foods, or hard cheeses, as the thin, hard blade can break. Use a suitable sharpening stone or professional service to restore the edge as needed.
Maintenance & use
Never cut into bones or frozen items as this may damage the egg. Always wash the knife by hand and dry it thoroughly immediately.
Please note that both the blade and handle can be seriously damaged and broken if the knife is washed in a dishwasher – this also applies to stainless steel and wooden handles.
