About the Shape - The Bunka is a bonafide badass, like a kitchen knife in a leather jacket. It is a multi-purpose knife akin to the Santoku. “Bunka” translates to “culture". This multi-purpose kitchen knife is great for dicing, slicing or mincing. Like a santoku, it's a cross between the nakiri and a gyuto, just a little more badass looking.

About Hatsukokoro Saihyo - The Saihyo (translates as "Diamond Dust") knife line from Hatsukokoro is a testament to precision. Hatsukokoro teamed up with a very skilled knifemaker in Seki, Japan to produce this line of knives. These laser thin knives are finished with a dazzling suminagashi Damascus finish wrapped about an SG2 stainless steel core and fitted with a wenge wood octagon handle.

This knife line is perfect for someone looking for a nimble stainless steel knife, with a fantastic fit and finish that will be a stunning addition to any knife magnet.
