The Hakami Sakura Bunka knife combines a versatile Japanese blade with a particularly elegant hammered finish!
Measuring 20 cm in length, it’s ideal for everyday cutting of vegetables, meat, and fish. Its three-layer San Mai construction features a core of 10Cr15CoMoV stainless steel, while its brown Pakka wood handle has an oval shape that fits comfortably in the hand. This kitchen tool offers an excellent balance between precision and comfort.
A precise and versatile San Mai blade
This steel knife features a 20-centimeter blade designed for consistent cutting. Its Bunka profile combines the qualities of a Japanese chef’s knife with a Kiritsuke-style tip, ideal for tasks requiring greater precision.
The blade is crafted using a three-layer San Mai construction, with a central core of 10Cr15CoMoV stainless steel. This construction combines a core dedicated to the cutting edge with outer layers that protect and reinforce the entire blade.
The hammered finish gives the blade a uniform textured appearance. This type of surface can reduce food sticking during cutting by creating slight gaps between the blade and the food. The smooth cutting edge, meanwhile, ensures clean cuts without a sawing effect. The blade features a San Mai finish combined with decorative hammering, resulting in a look that is both technical and original.
A comfortable Pakka handle
The brown handle is made of Pakka, a composite material commonly used in cutlery for its good resistance to moisture and ease of maintenance. It withstands repeated use in the kitchen while retaining a warm appearance. Its brown hue creates an elegant contrast with the hammered San Mai blade.
Its oval shape fits comfortably in the palm. It accommodates the various grips used for mincing, chopping, or slicing, while providing good stability during use. The handle thus offers a grip well-suited for lengthy preparation tasks and precise movements.
With a total length of 34 cm, the knife offers a good cutting range. The 20-cm blade length allows you to work with ingredients of various sizes without making the knife too bulky on the countertop. The bunka profile offers valuable versatility, making it a great complement to a chef’s knife or a santoku in any kitchen set.
