From my first glance of this beautiful knife, I knew it should be called "Gekko”, or 月光, which means "Moonlight" in Japanese. From every angle, the Gekko knife reminded me of the way that the shape and light of the Moon changes each night.
Beautifully mirror polished VG-10 stainless steel blade core that is clad on both sides by a 33 layer Damascus stainless steel (HRc. 60-61. 50/50 symmetrically ground double beveled edge).
We specially requested the Craftsmen to make extra attention and care for making precise and detailed edge by hand-sharpening process.
Rare, Unique and the Sophisticated Royal Blue-Purple Pakka Wood Handle Scales provide an impressive and stylish accent to the beautiful Damascus blade. Pakka Wood is strong, durable and resists both water and shrinkage. These high quality knives also feature a full-tang construction, a forged stainless steel bolster and stainless steel handle rivets.
You can select the knife (with the Wooden Saya) or (Without Wooden Saya) at your preference. The matching wooden Saya (Sheath) with a decorative Blue lacquer finish, which nicely complements the Gekko Blue, Blue pakkawood handle and also the aesthetics of the Damascus blade.
A mainstay of professional Western kitchens, the Petty knife is a small general-purpose knife used for peeling, shaping, and slicing fruits and vegetables, chopping herbs, and making garnishes. The compact size and relatively narrow blade of the Petty knife mean that it is very nimble and controllable, thus it is ideal for making precise cuts.
This is my 5th purchase from JCK. Shipping is fast, customer service great. The knives are very sharp, very beautiful and unique. I give a 4 star rating because 2 of the 5 knives are not perfect. The wood handle is a wee bit too small for the tang. On the top of the handle the tang is slightly raised above the wood. Not a deal breaker, still an excellent value.
After using this knife for a little over a year, I have really enjoyed its light weight, its thin blade width which lets me de-bone chicken and and fine mince easily. It's edge retention seems pretty good as well, and I've been using the factory edge with honing regularly with no issues. Will definitely be looking for JCK Gekkos in the future!
I really enjoy using This knife is very helpful in the kitchen.
Great sharpness, great quality, great knife
This is really well made and well balanced in the hand, I prefer this style for veg prep and trimming fat off meat. Its very sharp out the box, all I did was strop it and have been happily cooking with it.
