The 8.5" Bunka from the Retro Series is a k-tipped all-rounder built for control. A reverse-tanto tip drops into fine, detailed work while the flat profile carries clean push cuts through veg, herbs and boneless proteins. The blade is 3-layer composite steel around a 10Cr15CoMoV core, finished in a frosted black stonewash and hung on a red wood and black buffalo horn handle.
