N690 Petty Chef Knife Blank Set - 3 PCS (Kiritsuke, Gyuto, Nakiri)
A three-blade petty set is a satisfying project. Same handle stock, three different tips, and a finished set that fills the gap between paring and chef knives.
Böhler N690 is the workhorse stainless of the knife world. Cobalt and vanadium give it fine grain and genuine edge retention, while 17% chromium keeps corrosion at bay in a wet kitchen.
Steel sourced directly from Voestalpine, hand ground by our team, and heat treated professionally by Voestalpine before it ships. Every blank arrives at working hardness, ready to finish.
