Product Description
- Blade is hammer forged using American BG42 stainless steel, which is a high performance martensitic steel with a fine grain structure and great balance between toughness and hardness
- Thick spine with distal taper, meaning that the blade starts out thick near the handle and gradually becomes thinner towards the tip
- Convex bevel and sharpening done by hand using traditional Japanese water grinding creates a knife geometry that feels sturdy yet glides effortlessly through all foods with minimal resistance
- Ebony wood octagonal handle with a permanent and seamless fit to the blade tang; Chamfered spine and choil makes for a very comfortable pinch grip
- Designed for versatility, this bunka features a pronounced flat edge section for efficient vertical and push cuts, paired with a gentle curve toward the tip for smooth maneuverability, and a refined kiritsuke-style tip for precision work
- Handcrafted in China; Please note that this knife is thinner behind the edge than many knives that we sell, so care must be taken to not damage the cutting edge
