If the Santoku and the Chef Knife had a rebel child, it would be the Bunka. Recognizable by its "K-Tip" (Kiritsuke/Reverse Tanto tip), this blade is the ultimate fusion of style and aggression. It is designed for chefs who want the flat cutting profile of a Nakiri but need a sharp tip for detailed work.
Precision Meets Power
The flat edge is perfect for "push-cutting" vegetables, ensuring you get clean cuts all the way through to the board. The acute "K-Tip" allows you to pierce delicate skins or score meat with surgical precision. Built on a 10Cr15CoMoV steel core and wrapped in 67 layers of Damascus steel, this blade stays sharp through the most demanding prep sessions.
Signature Comfort and Control
A blade this sharp needs a handle that keeps you in control. The MO series handle is crafted from deep, burnt oak, hand-shaped for a comfortable, secure grip. An elegant red G10 accent ring completes the look, making this perhaps the most visually striking knife in our collection.
