Produced by Iron Clad in Fukuyama under Takayuki Shibata’s ‘Art Over Beauty’ philosophy, this double-bevel blade features a K-tip profile with a thinner, sharper point for picking and slicing garnishes. The flatter edge geometry supports controlled peeling when held in hand, while the 152mm edge length and 33mm heel height suit general-purpose kitchen tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis knife uses SG2 powdered stainless steel hardened to 62-64 HRC, offering high wear resistance and fine edge sharpness through uniform carbide distribution. The san-mai stainless clad construction pairs with a migaki surface finish that reduces food stickage during cutting. Weighing 75g with a spine measuring 2.0mm at the heel and tapering to 1.0mm at the tip, the blade reflects Shibata’s hand-ground geometry focused on thinness behind the edge. An octagonal rosewood handle with a synthetic horn ferrule provides an ambidextrous grip suitable for detailed manipulation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Iron Clad","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48117067055325,"sku":"SHIB-CMKT-PE135","price":339.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0287\/7227\/0217\/files\/DSC_7327.jpg?v=1783041245","url":"https:\/\/www.knivesandstones.com.au\/products\/shibata-koutetsu-chromax-ro-petty-135mm","provider":"Knives and Stones","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
