Australian Petty Knife | The “Joey” Knife | Custom Finishline Sale Online

The Joey Knife is a small chef’s knife commonly known as a Petty knife.

Being the smaller version of the Big Red knife, Joey takes on the same form following Mum throughout the bush.

The perfect all-purpose knife. There’s no job it can’t do, and a must in the kitchen. Smaller and more versatile than The Big Red, this knife is beautiful to use and a sight to behold.

*Please Note: Handles are made using Australian wood burl (roots) so each knife is unique. The images attached are for guiding purposes, so wood grain and resin will vary between innavidual knives (not the same as the one in the picture).

Description

The Joey (Petty Knife) Specifications
Blade Length: 152mm (6″) | Over All Length: 285mm (11.25″) | Blade Thickness: 2.5mm (0.1″) | Weight: 200g (7.05oz) | HRC: 60-62

VG10 high carbon Japanese steel construction with sandblast finish.

The high carbon content core ensures a razor-sharp cutting edge, clad with stainless steel for protection. Sandblasting the top section of the blade seemed fitting for an Australian knife. From the beaches in Bondi to the dunes on Birdsville, we stand on a sandy country. Practically, this creates a non-stick surface to help glide through vegetables without sticking.

Our wood handles are sourced from the length and breadth of Australia. We fossick for intriguing and symbolic woods for our handles, such as Gidgee from the Simpson Desert which we think pays great homage to the Australian ‘Big Red’ outback.
