About the knife type: Petty (utility knife)
A petty is smaller than a chef's knife and has a narrow, pointed blade. It is easy to control when you slice, peel and trim fruit, vegetables and smaller pieces of meat and fish. It also minces onion and garlic well.
About the steel: White #2 (Shirogami #2)
