The word petty in petty knife literally comes from the French word petit, which means “small.” While the Bighorn Chef’s Knife excels at large slicing tasks, like breaking down large fruits and vegetables or big cuts of meat, the smaller, handy MKC Petty Knife is perfect for finer tasks in the kitchen. Petty knives are essentially utility knives used for work done off the cutting board. It’s the knife you use when you’re cutting a vegetable in your hand or breaking down a chicken.
This knife really excels in tasks like boning and smaller work. A petty knife’s narrow tip allows you to get into joints and work around corners. At the same time, it’s a very versatile and a handy slicing knife & great for cutting up small fruit and vegetables.
I AM IN LOVE. A little larger than the paring knife I USED TO always reach for but not too big for my smaller hand (that was a concern). Until this knife, I had no idea what it was like to have a perfectly balanced, sharper than sharp kitchen knife. I didn't think I could love a knife (and the MKC cutting board!) but I am in love with it.
Thank you so much for leaving such a glowing review about our LITTLE BIGHORN PETTY knife in black. We are thrilled to hear that it has become an essential part of your kitchen and that you are in love with it.

We are so happy to have you as a satisfied customer. Thank you for choosing MKC and for your kind words. Happy cooking!
This knife is my new go to for cutting up vegetables and small cuts of meat. It really compliments my MKCUS Santoku blade and my cleaver. Love these knives!
Thank you so much for the review Chris. Happy to hear you found your 'go to' kitchen knife! Happy cooking!
Bought the full culinary set a year ago, and my sister has been coveting them ever since, so I bought her one of these as a gift. Best knives ever!
What an amazing gift! We hope your sister enjoys them for years to come. Hope she cooks you up an amazing meal with them!
These knives will change your kitchen game, anybody that uses this knife wants one.
Handles great, laser sharp and super versatile.
They are remarkably easy to resharpen too.
Thank you so much! We wanted our kitchen knives to have the same qualities that our hunting knives do too!
This will be the last kitchen knife of this size that I will buy (I will be purchasing the other knives in the set in 2024). This knife performed admirably and it is a joy to have a product that not only I will use for life but can be passed on as an heirloom.
Thank you for the honest feedback and review, Kevin! It's always awesome to have folks use them and then review them. We will have a lot of them in 2024 we are hoping so you should have multiple chances to complete your set!
