{"type":"firestarter.listing","listing":{"id":"lst_70-qe0ps","product_name":"Tsunehisa Ginsan #3 Nashiji Petty 135mm Red Pakkawood Scales","category":"Petty Knife","description":"Overview\nThe Tsunehisa Ginsan #3 Nashiji Petty 135mm with Red Pakkawood Scales is a compact Japanese utility knife built for small prep work, trimming, peeling, garnish work, herbs, fruit, and detailed board tasks. At 135mm, it sits in the sweet spot between a paring knife and a small utility knife, giving you more reach than a short parer while still feeling nimble and easy to control.\nThe blade uses Ginsan #3, also known as Silver 3 stainless steel, a favorite among cooks who want the sharpening feel and fine edge potential of carbon steel with easier day-to-day maintenance. The stainless cladding and nashiji pear-skin finish give the knife a practical, lightly textured appearance while helping reduce food drag during smaller slicing tasks. The red and black pakkawood Western-style handle adds durability, comfort, and a clean, classic look.\nThis is a strong choice for cooks who want a low-maintenance Japanese petty knife that still feels refined on the stones and precise in hand. It is especially useful as a companion knife next to a gyuto, santoku, or bunka when you need something smaller for detail work.\nCommon Questions\nQ: Is the Tsunehisa Ginsan #3 Nashiji Petty 135mm good for home cooks?\nA: Yes. This petty is a great fit for home cooks because Ginsan #3 is stainless, easy to care for, and sharpens very well. It gives you excellent Japanese knife performance without the same level of maintenance required by fully carbon steel knives.\nQ: What is a 135mm petty knife best used for?\nA: A 135mm petty knife is ideal for trimming proteins, cutting fruit, peeling, slicing garlic and shallots, working with herbs, and handling small prep jobs where a full-size chef knife feels too large. It can be used in hand or on a cutting board.\nQ: How should I care for this Ginsan petty knife?\nA: Wash by hand, dry immediately, and avoid glass, stone, or metal cutting surfaces. Use a knife-friendly board such as a Hasegawa Pro Cutting Board, and maintain the edge with proper sharpen","images":["https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0602/6720/0736/files/tsunehisa-ginsan-3-nashiji-petty-135mm-red-pakkawood-scales-2_189ef730-f35a-4546-9bef-3c40d27b5662.jpg?v=1780737930","https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0602/6720/0736/files/tsunehisa-ginsan-3-nashiji-petty-135mm-red-pakkawood-scales-1_3109a077-3705-4e9e-8472-dcac09f00c27.jpg?v=1780737930","https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0602/6720/0736/files/tsunehisa-ginsan-3-nashiji-petty-135mm-red-pakkawood-scales-3_7a50d569-df8a-4b68-b9dc-150884d6d992.jpg?v=1780737930","https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0602/6720/0736/files/tsunehisa-ginsan-3-nashiji-petty-135mm-red-pakkawood-scales-4_c70c14d9-ba77-4f9e-aaaf-e07705447a76.jpg?v=1780737930"],"price":99,"currency":"USD","in_stock":true,"inventory_qty":9999,"dynamic_pricing":false,"listed_at":"2026-06-18T20:44:30.258Z"},"share_url":"https://firestarter.network/l/lst_70-qe0ps","purchase":{"summary":"Live product listing on the Firestarter agent commerce network.
