Kohetsu knives are about bringing you the best cutting performance using the top steels on the market with impeccable heat treatment and nice, thin grinds at an affordable price. This line has taken us over a year to develop and we think the effort has been worth it.
The 150mm petty sits in the sweet spot of petty blade lengths, usually between 120mm and 160mm. As such it can fulfill many roles in the kitchen: a vegetable cutter and dicer, a slicer of small proteins, or a nimble all-purpose chopper. It comes with a ho wood octagonal handle that, together with its 60/40 grind, makes it suitable for both left- and right-handed users. The blade falls towards the light side of the scale and features the characteristic thin grind and edge found on all of these nicely balanced knives. This is a nice, easy knife to hold and use and represents great value.
Please note, the knife sharpener intentionally thins the edges of these knives to make them perform better, especially on the tip area. Often times you will see a hazy/cloudy scratch pattern as a result. This is not a defect.Maker: Kohetsu

5 review(s) WRITE A REVIEW (Reviews are subject to approval) Feels like an extremely sharp extension of my handPosted By: Adam Benfante

I have owned this knife for 6 years and I can safely say that it is hands down my favorite of any knife I have ever used. It is so easy to control that it literally feels like a part of my hand. Ridiculously easy to maintain the Aogami Super high carbon and even during heavy prep when you can't constantly wipe it and keep it dry it will still maintain its edge. Definitely recommend fully, 10/10

Nice petty. KASP 150mmPosted By: Bill Lockhart - verified customer

I have no negative comments. I did not pay attention to the blade height as it is too big for my big hands. My wife should be able to use it. I am waiting for the 150mm Bunka as it is similar to my 210mm Gyuto.

If you are concerned about steel, ease of use and durability...you need look no further than Kohetsu! For the money paid, I doubt you will find better. If you want a sharp, workhorse, simply elegant, and not a piece of art you'd be afraid to use...look no further than Kohetsu! Even the name is beautiful. Personally I own four: two HAP40 and two Aogami Super's. If sharp out of the box has much meaning to you then these knives are have it. The 150 petty AS came as sharp as I have ever felt. I have come to use this knife as my go to for most all medium to large veggie work and the majority of meat and fish cutting. Holds it's edge and easy to sharpen at 64 rockwell. Balance is great as is control. The simple wa handle feels good in hand and is well finished. If you need a great petty in 150mm length at a super price...the Kohetsu AS150mm should be considered on your short list.

great knifePosted By: matthew alongi - verified customer

I was undecided for a long time about which petty to get, after deciding i choose this one. After running it threw its paces at work over one week with mostly acidic foods, it still maintains a great edge. After a quick stropping with diamond spray the edge was back to stone sharp. Have not had an issue with rust forming, the exposed edge quickly forms a patina. All around great knife highly recommend to anyone on the fence.
