Bunka knives are one of the few versatile traditional Japanese blades and are suitable for use as both slicing knives and paring knives.

These sword-shaped knives are characterized by a straight and wide blade and have a longer blade length than many other knives, allowing for effortless cutting of vegetables, fish and meat.

The user should have advanced skills in handling traditional Japanese knives to make the most of the unique bunka design.

Traditionally, these knives are often used by chefs as a sign of their status.

Material Details

Aogami No.2 (Hitachi Metals Ltd.) is made by adding Chromium and Tungsten / Wolfram to Shirogami No.2. This results in increased toughness and the production of hard carbide molecules which improve edge retention. Many knife users have noted that while Aogami No.2 is very similar to Shirogami No.2 in terms of edge sharpness, it has slightly superior edge retention.

Finish Details

Kurouchi Finish, the unprocessed (black) part on the top side of the blade has already developed a dark patina, which protects the blade and gives it a traditional Japanese look.
