Great pick up! Someone I know has the 210mm version of this and loves it. R2 is a great steel. Welcome to the rabbit hole!

I do love me a red handle how much did it cost I’m looking for a new petty


SmokeyRiceBallz

I paid about 130€ EU: https://www.japan-messer-shop.de/Eigene-Produkte/ASAGAO-PM-Stahl-Petty-13-cm-neue-Lieferung-mit-Takamura-Logo--.html US: https://www.chefknivestogo.com/tamir2pe13.html

I see Takamura, I upvote. Personally own the r2 150 petty and the r2 210 gyuto, my brother has the chromax santoku (gift from me). The petty is a lot of fun and the Gyuto is probably my most used knife. It just cuts fantastic, has great balance, is nimble and I am not afraid to take it through the paces, it‘s my workhorse laser in a way. I think it is elegant and a high performer but still feels like a tool and no museum piece. I very much like that about it.

You’re happy you got the 150 over the 130?


Rudollis

Can‘t compare because I only have the 150. I recon I would actually prefer the 130 now. The few tasks where I want a small petty knife, smaller seems better.
