Blade Type

The Bunka is your small/medium sized prep solution. If you prefer a slightly shorter blade length but still need to prep veggies and smaller cuts of meat, this is your stop. The angled "K-Tip" allows for finer tip work and can be used to sweep ingredients across the board so you don't dull your edge.

Steel Type

SG2 is considered by many as the best knifemaking steel in Japan. It gives all the benefits of carbon steel (very long edge retention, general ease of sharpening) without the carbon steel stresses of maintenance. It'll hold an edge for a long time, and can quickly and easily be refreshed on a whetstone or ceramic honing steel.

Care Information

This knife is made with a stainless steel and is easy going and low on maintenance. It has high chromium content, meaning it is generally considered safe to leave wet on the board for short periods of time. is still best practice to not leave this knife to air dry as it's stain-less not stain-none! Wipe down after washing the knife and store away from any sources of moisture.
