Mcusta Petty Hybrid Splash 150mm (5.9″)

Mcusta Petty Hybrid Splash is another beautiful kitchen knife, cut out from the beams of Mcusta’s lasers, and then sharpened to a razor-edge sharpness by hand. It got its name (Splash) due to the very pronounced Damascus pattern on the blade, making every single blade a unique piece of art, so this knife is a great choice for all the Damascus lovers out there.

A petty knife is basically a smaller version of a gyuto knife (Chef’s knife). Petty knives are intended for all those smaller tasks where larger knives are deemed unwieldy, both on and off the cutting board. A must-have knife in every kitchen, it can be used for peeling, mincing, paring and decorating food.

Hybrid Splash features a more simplistic, but very ergonomic handle, made of non-slip pakka wood. Small textures on the hexagon-shaped handle prevent our hands from slipping, even with wet hands. A simple, yet aesthetic luminescent pin holds the full-tang handle securely in place, while the stainless bolster attaches perfectly to the handle, featuring a decorative red spacer. 

About Mcusta Zanmai:
Mcusta Zanmai has an interesting (and very high tech) philosophy of knife manufacturing. With their 800-year tradition of making knives, they decided to incorporate traditional knife craftsmanship knowledge into their own custom-made machines. Mcusta is the only knife manufacturer who uses laser machines to cut out the knives, instead of stamping the knives out of the steel sheet. Due to this process, their blades are less susceptible to structural stresses in the steel, making them the most innovative and modern knife maker in Japan.

Handles and pins are milled to the precision of 1/1000mm with their high-quality CNC machines. Every knife is then inspected and assembled by hand. The final (sharp) edge is sharpened by Mcusta’s team of master craftsmen to get a very good out-of-the-box sharpness. 

☝️ Fun fact: Mcusta is a made-up word – a combination of Machine and custom!
