Aritsugu Bunka 190mm Stainless Steel

This stainless steel Bunka from Aritsugu is the real workhorse.

Bunka is a multipurpose. all-rounder knife that suits both domestic and commercial kitchens with all skill levels.

Bunka has a wider blade width than the average chef knives of the same length and the higher heel helps cutting smoothly without applying pressure.

The thinly tapered blade is perfect for slicing /  dicing vegetables, meat and seafood so in short, perfect knife for everything except bones, frozen food or anything extremely hard.


AUS-8 stainless steel is a Japanese high quality blade steel with a balanced hardness so more forgiving than some of the extremely hard and brittle steels.
The handle is made of durable Mahogany secured with 3 rivets. 


Aritsugu has more than 400years of history started as sword smith and today, Aritsugu is known as one of the top knife makers in Japan especially within Japanese chefs.

Each knife is hand-sharpened prior to shipping for best performance out of box.


Please hand wash and dry your knives ( including stainless steel knives ) after use and keep in cool dry area to protect your knives from corrosion or possible handle damage.


This knife is not ideal for cutting bones, frozen food or extremely hard fibrous ingredients.
