Kuranowa VG10 Damascus K-Petty 135mm – 67 Layers – Olive Wood
A compact and precise Japanese utility knife featuring a VG10 stainless steel core, striking 67-layer Damascus construction and a natural olive wood handle.
The Kuranowa VG10 Damascus K-Petty 135mm bridges the gap between a small paring knife and a full-sized chef’s knife. Its compact blade and distinctive K-tip make it particularly useful for precise preparation where a Gyuto or Santoku may feel unnecessarily large.
VG10 Stainless Steel & 67-Layer Damascus
The blade features a VG10 stainless steel core, offering a strong combination of sharpness, edge retention and corrosion resistance.
The 67-layer Damascus construction creates the intricate pattern across the blade, giving each knife a distinctive appearance while maintaining the practicality of stainless steel.
135mm K-Petty – Small but Extremely Versatile
At 135mm, this K-Petty offers excellent control for smaller and more detailed kitchen tasks. The pointed K-tip is especially useful when precision is required.
Ideal for:
- Garlic, shallots and onions
- Herbs and small vegetables
- Fruit preparation
- Trimming meat and poultry
- Portioning and small slicing tasks
- Detailed and precise knife work
It is an excellent companion to a larger Gyuto, Santoku or Bunka.
Olive Wood Handle
The Japanese-style olive wood handle features a naturally varied grain, giving the knife a warm and distinctive appearance. Because olive wood is a natural material, variations in colour and grain make each handle slightly unique.

The combination of the K-tip, detailed Damascus blade and olive wood handle also makes this one of the more visually distinctive options in the Kuranowa range.
