178mm Western Petty Knife, White Oak

Crafted for the discerning Chef, this exceptional Petty knife features a razor-sharp O1 high-carbon tool steel core expertly clad in striking Alabama Damascus. This signature cladding utilizes a specific four-alloy recipe consisting of 52100, 5160, 15N20, and 203E, expertly blending deep-hardening high-carbon steels with nickel-bearing components to create a mesmerizing organic pattern with high visual contrast. It excels as a high-end cladding material because the tougher, resilient outer layers act as a shock absorber for the ultra-hard core, allowing the knife to maintain extreme edge retention at the center while providing overall flexibility and durability across the blade body. The knife is perfectly balanced with a beautiful  White Oak handle and comes complete with a matching custom wooden sheath (saya) for safe, elegant storage.
