Constructed of Japanese SG2 powder stainless steel for a fine carbide structure that takes a very fine edge with superior edge retention; 63 Rockwell Hardness
3 layer blade with SG2 core and hammered (“tsuchime”) texture with a black (“kurouchi”) finish; the blade is then ground to a matte finish with a highly polished edge for a beautiful and long lasting appearance
Thin blade is hand ground and honed to a razor sharp 12 degree double bevel blade angle
Traditional Japanese octagonal two-tone pakkawood handle with white ring is ergonomically shaped for a secure grip and is permanently and seamlessly installed to the blade
The bunka knife is a multi-purpose tool for preparing meat, fish and vegetables; the kiritsuke tip is a Japanese design that allows for very precise work while the the shorter blade length and slight curvature of the blade allows for easy maneuverability whether using vertical chopping motion, draw slice or rocking mince
Handcrafted in Seki, Japan with a lifetime warranty
