Takamura Petty 13 cm R2

Discover the Takamura R2 Petty Knife with a blade length of 130 mm – your compact and versatile kitchen tool, ideal for the precise preparation of small ingredients such as mushrooms, garlic, or shallots. Japanese quality and exceptional durability are the features that distinguish the Takamura R2 Series knives. Their key element is R2 (SG2) powder steel, which ensures that the blades are not only stainless, but also exceptionally hard, guaranteeing long-lasting sharpness. What's more, unlike other hard powder steels, this steel is not prone to cracking, which increases its resistance. In the heat treatment process, the blades achieve a hardness of 62-64 HRC, and the outer layers of soft stainless steel protect the hard core, adding flexibility to the knife.

Hand-sharpened, extremely thin Takamura R2 knife blades provide exceptional cutting performance from the first use. The ergonomic handle made of red Pakka wood is moisture-resistant, ensuring comfort and safety of use. In addition, the knife's full bolster guarantees a secure grip, which is important for precise kitchen work.

The Takamura R2 Petty is not just a small knife—it is a tool that offers enormous possibilities in your kitchen. It will provide you not only with exceptional quality and durability, but also with feedback and precision in everyday cooking. It is the choice for those who value both functionality and aesthetics in their kitchen arsenal.
