Tojiro Petty DP tepané 130mm (5.1")

Thank you for your comment. We apologize that the knife is not as sharp as you expected.
Japanese sharpeners sharpen knives by hand. Despite their precision, every now and then they miss one and it doesn't sharpen well. We didn't check the sharpness either, we apologize.
But don't worry, we will fix the bad impression. I would like to ask if you can bring the knife to our salon, where we will sharpen it for free. Or we can arrange for a courier to pick up the knife at your address and deliver it back to you after we sharpen it.
Best regards,
David

Hello Mr. Kristjan

Thank you very much for your message.

We are sincerely sorry that the knife did not meet your expectations. It is not our intention to mislead customers. We took a couple of knives from the aforementioned series and re-measured them.
We measured the thickness of the knife with a caliper of 2 mm, the weight of the knife is 50g and the length of the handle is 113 mm. We apologize for the mistake and the information on the website was incorrect.
Magnolia wood is the first choice of Japanese chefs, especially sushi masters, because its wood does not emit odors that could interfere with the delicate taste of food. In general, wood emits its own odor due to extractive substances, which are found in small quantities in it and can vary greatly from wood to wood, so this property of the material also needs to be considered when choosing a handle.
Considering that it is an entry-level knife, cheaper materials are also used, a black plastic ring in the assembly of the handle and blade.
As for the length of the handle, it depends on the length of the blade, petty models use handles of size S (the lengths of these handles are between 110 mm and 120 mm).

You can definitely return the knife to us and we will choose a more suitable one that will suit you better, or we will refund the purchase price for the said item. The third option would be to replace the handle with a larger one, since the advantage of Japanese handles is that they can be changed.

Please let me know how you will decide, and at the same time I apologize once again for our mistake.

With kind regards,
