Description

A quality Japanese cut for this bunka knife

The 14.5 cm Shizu Hamono Gen VG10 Damascus bunka knife embodies the Seki cutlery tradition in Japan, expertly crafted for precision and durability. It combines refined aesthetics with high performance.

For versatile use in the kitchen, the 14.5 cm bunka offers an ideal compromise between maneuverability and performance. Compared to the santoku knife (often 16.5 cm in size), it remains easier to handle while remaining efficient. If you're looking for something between a paring knife and a chef's knife, this model is an excellent choice!

Blade: precision, sturdiness, design

The blade is of Damascus construction: a rigid steel core is surrounded by 33 layers of softer stainless steel. The core of Japanese VG10 steel contains around 1% carbon, for a high-performance cutting edge. With a hardness of 60HRC Rockwell, this Japanese kitchen knife retains its edge for a long time. The 33-layer damascus pattern is accompanied by a rough forged and hammered finish that adds character to your Japanese kitchen knife!

Handle: ergonomics and comfort

The handle is made of pakkawood, a composite wood that guarantees moisture resistance and stability. Its D-shape offers ergonomics and a comfortable, ambidextrous grip, ideal for prolonged use in the kitchen! Complemented by a black pakkawood bolster, this design benefits from a natural, authentic result.

Damascus knife care and use tips
