He worked at Ashi Hamono before starting his own knife sharpening company in the Osaka area (normal sharpening and repair, as opposed to the grinding and shaping of knives). For the years that we have known him, he had always been talking about creating his own line of knives. Having seen his work previously and knowing how he values the same kind of thin cross-sectional geometry, we were excited to see how his knives would turn out. They do not disappoint. He’s always been focused on what he sees as a pragmatic balance between ease of sharpening, edge taking, and edge retention. With that in mind, he picked this version of VG10 for these. While it doesn't have amazing edge retention, the knives are very easy to sharpen and decently tough and durable considering how thin they are. His focus is on maximizing cutting performance while still being easy to use and care for. The handles are made from Borneo Ironwood and the knives come with leather sheaths. We’ve been using some of his knives for a while now, and, as I often tell people, thin knives just cut better. We hope you enjoy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli id=\"tab-detailed-specs\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKnife Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Petty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteel Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e VG10 Stainless\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Octagonal Borneo Ironwood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless Clad\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHand Orientation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ambidextrous\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli id=\"tab-measurements\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 115mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Height:\u003c\/strong\u003e 23.5mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16.70mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle to Tip Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 128mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeel to Tip Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 118mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth of Spine at Handle:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.30mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth of Spine above Heel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.10mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth of Spine at Middle:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth of Spine 1cm from the Tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.66mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Thickness 1\/2 way between the Spine and Edge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.8mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Height at Heel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 34mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 77g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Please note that there may be slight variation in the shade of color of the leather sheath.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jyunpei Kondo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39575392288829,"sku":"JU115PTSSOSR","price":300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/0120\/files\/2S4A4503_a409ba6a-6e2e-44c6-bd7a-7e69ce02283b.png?v=1695240369","url":"https:\/\/www.japaneseknifeimports.live\/products\/jun-115mm-stainless-wa-petty-with-borneo-ironwood-handle","provider":"Japanese Knife Imports","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
