Each knife is individually hand-forged. Slight variations in size and weight may occur. No two knives are exactly alike. Cutting performance remains consistent.

This bunka knife is handcrafted using Aogami (Blue Steel) #2 as the core, clad with stainless steel to achieve an ideal balance between exceptional sharpness and ease of maintenance. It delivers the refined cutting performance of traditional Japanese carbon steel, while offering improved corrosion resistance for everyday use.

The bunka-style blade features a sharp, pointed tip that allows for precise control and detailed work. Its versatile profile supports a wide range of cutting techniques, including slicing, chopping, and push-cutting, making it suitable for meat, fish, and vegetables alike.

The blade is finished with a Kurouchi (black-forged) surface, preserving the natural texture formed during the forging process. This traditional finish gives each knife a unique character and depth. Combined with stainless cladding, it achieves a practical balance between aesthetic appeal and ease of care. Over time, the blade develops subtle changes in appearance, enhancing its individuality.

The handle is finished with a blue lacquer coating, offering excellent durability and water resistance. Its refined appearance and comfortable grip reflect both functionality and craftsmanship.

Each knife is carefully packaged in a presentation box, ensuring safe delivery and an elevated unboxing experience.

Designed for both performance and beauty, this knife is made to be used and appreciated for years to come.
