Light, nimble and good looking, this tiny petty with its angular tip is perfect for intricate cutting jobs.
The stainless, powdered R2 steel used in the blade construction is very thin which lends itself to taking a very sharp edge and is hard enough to handle daily use without needing to worry about its strength.
There is a specially made saya to fit this knife.
