Blade Type
The Bunka knife, a versatile and traditional Japanese kitchen tool, features a distinctive, angular tip and a wide blade. It's designed for precision tasks like slicing, dicing, and chopping. Ideal for handling vegetables, meat, and fish, the Bunka is a multifunctional knife celebrated for its utility and unique aesthetic.
Steel Type
Japanese Blue Steel #2, or "Aogami" #2, is a revered high-carbon steel alloyed with low amounts of chromium and tungsten. It strikes an excellent balance between durability, edge retention, and ease of sharpening. Slightly more ductile than Blue #1, it's widely used in crafting traditional Japanese knives, beloved by chefs for its resilience and sharpness, albeit is slightly softer than Blue 1.
Recommended Maintenance
Store it in a dry environment using magnetic strips, knife rolls, or sayas. Avoid hitting hard or frozen objects and twisting the blade while cutting. These knives are not dishwasher safe. Clean with hot water and a soft cloth, and dry immediately after use to prevent rust spots on the high carbon steel. For more information please read the blog below.

Words can't explain how amazing this knife is to use and gaze at! It's my second bunka and my go to knife for everyday prep. Gyuto's aren't getting a look in at the moment. I LOVE it. Thanks Chefs Edge 👊🏽
Excellent. Highly recommend!
Excellent blade and Excellent service!
I will definitely be getting another knife from this blacksmith that's for sure
This knife is beautiful and so much fun to work with.
This is an undisputed kitchen knife that is worth the money you spend. You will end up spending less money on this one anyway. The hammer pattern makes cutting vegetables much easier and it stays sharp for a long time. I didn't dare to sharpen it myself, so I had to find a technician to sharpen it for me because I was afraid it wouldn't be as sharp as before. Finally, be careful about rust.
Love love love it, perfect for quickly bringing the edge back in my knives just before service. 100% recommend for all chefs
Knife arrived in a short time and is very sharp. I little larger than my prior one, though as I ordered. Would recommend this company to buy through.
Fantastic
