GW Ginsan Sanmai Petty Knife

This Gin-San Sanmai series is the perfect example of the Japanese design philosophy Shibui,  a balance of simplicity and complexity. The simple elegance and austere look, create a powerful appearance. The three-layer blade with Gin-San (Silver-3) core is thin, strong, and precise; and the walnut octagonal handle provides a comfortable grip. Derived from the French word petite, a Petty knife covers tasks from fine garnishing to utility purposes with ease and agility.
