The Petty Chef Knife is a little something I like to call an EDK, or Every Day Kitchen knife, because it is the most used knife in the kitchen. This petty chef is specifically designed to be your go-to knife. Not too big and not too small, but it is right in the perfect range that allows for versatility, constant control, and ease of use. This is the knife that you will want to grab nine times out of ten to handle most jobs in your kitchen. The Petty Chef also has a little weight to it that adds to the controllability and helps to get through tough jobs like breaking down chickens and fish. Our standard petty chef knife is made with AEB-L stainless steel for high performance and strong edge retention, with a low amount of required maintenance. The standard model also features either a wood or synthetic handle, but this can be changed or upgraded when purchasing a custom kitchen knife.

Please note that no custom-made knife should ever be put in a dishwasher! Custom knives, especially hand-crafted knives, are not dishwasher safe and react poorly to the heat and harmful chemicals in dishwasher detergents. Please remember to hand-wash only with a mild soap and water, then dry as soon as possible. For extra protection you can also apply a light coating of knife wax or coconut oil to the blade and handle, then wipe them clean, which will help protect them and keep them serving you for years to come. This is especially important for knives with wooden handles and/or carbon steel blades. Both wood and steel are porous materials and can and will break down or rust if not properly cared for. Remember, take care of your knife, and it will take care of you.
