Expertly forged at Hayashida Hamono, this Bunka-style Japanese knife is made from Aogami No.2 (Blue Paper Steel) for exceptional edge retention and sharpness. The brown walnut wood handle adds natural warmth, and the blade is engraved with a gilt-highlighted branding.
Forged in Matsubara, one of only three traditional blacksmithing hubs in Nagasaki Prefecture, this knife embodies centuries-old local forging traditions, upheld by just three remaining smithies in the area.
Includes:
- Bunka Kitchen Knife (handcrafted from Aogami No.2 and Nantetsu, blade hardness HRC 61-62)
- Red Sharpening Stone (15cm x 4cm x 3cm)
- FREE WORLDWIDE SHIPPING
*The knife is made from steel, so there will be a certain amount of rusting over time. Use the included sharpening stone to get rid of the rust. Find an explanation video on knife sharpening on the bottom of this page.
