This Bunka knife was handcrafted at here in Brisbane by our in house knife master, Masaaki Saito.
Bunka knives are traditional and Japan’s very first all- rounder knives made by hybridising Nakiri and western style chef knife when western food culture was introduced.
Bunka has a wide face of blade like Nakiri which is handy when slicing, dicing and the acute angled tip works well for fiddly tasks.
Nitro-V stainless steel is known for their fine structure and has an excellent wear resistance with a balanced hardness of HRC 60 so the edge stays sharp but not getting brittle from the material being too hard.
This knife has a wide blade face ( 60 mm blade width at the heel ) so it cuts smooth and straight with no chance of your knuckle hitting the chopping board.
The smooth, beautifully polished semi octagonal handle is made of Black Mulga ( Acacia family ) topped with a Teak ferrule and fits comfortably whether you are right hand user or lefty.
