TP line is perfect for any cook who is looking for a high performing blade with a long-lasting edge with minimum rust management. (actually, who wouldn't want this?) The blade is relatively thin at the edge, and it can chip if used without proper technique or understanding. Regardless, these are some of the most popular gifts as well as investments in one's tool kit at Tosho. 

A petty (utility) knife probably gets used most often after your all-purpose knives. It can be used to cut small fruits, vegetables, and even some smaller cuts of meats (any many many more things, like cutting through plastic wrapping from a grocery trip!) If you have one, for a quick meal for two, you may just get it done without a chef's knife.
