'Bunka' Kitchen Knife

$119.99

Includes: 

  • 'Bunka' Kitchen Knife (handcrafted from steel, 33cm length, 18cm blade length, 150g weight)
  • Red Sharpening Stone (15cm x 4cm x 3cm)
  • FREE WORLDWIDE SHIPPING

The handcrafted knife is made of Aogami steel and soft iron, and has a Sakura wood handle. The blade is engraved with the signature of the smithy.

*Since each knife is crafted by hand, weight and dimensions might slightly vary for each knife.

*Depending on the number of orders and the smithy's situation, shipping the knife out might take up to 3 weeks.

 *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.

* Depending on the value of your order and local import rules of your country, there might be additional import taxes you have to pay upon arrival of the package.

Rustic Charm

After using the knife for a week, I really like the performance. It came out of the box sharp. I gave it 4 stars because the handle has a gap that lets water inside. I put silicone caulk to close the gap.

Dear Joshua Hamoy,

Thanks so much for the review, and happy to hear you are enjoying your knife! We are sorry to hear that there was a gap in the handle - all items are handcrafted one by one, so while the artisans do their very best, there can sometimes be some variation in the final product. We are glad that you found a satisfactory solution!

Thank you once again for your purchase and for supporting Japanese craftsmen.

Straight Bunka

Arrived today. What could I say... the most beautiful and sharpest knife I've ever held in my hands. It will make me cook every day, can't wait to start chopping again. I can make my western style knives to razors, but this...this is another level of edge. Thank you for the newspapers, I will keep it as souvenir. :) Love it. I can only hope I will be able to resharpen it properly.

Dear Imre Eori,

Thank you for your purchase and your review. We hope you will find plenty of opportunities to make many delicious things with it! It is great to hear you liked the local newspapers - a little 'slice' of life here in Japan. If you are unsure of how to sharpen your knife, feel free to check out this video where an artisan explains how to sharpen a kitchen knife: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-OzjOaqMPM

Best knife I have!

I have around 10 good knives, the kind you never lend to anyone, ever. By far this knife is the best! It holds the edge really well, is very well balanced and lighter than it looks. A real delight to work with, and it looks far much nicer than others.
I an really honored to be able to use a forged knife by Nakamura Sensei.
どうもありがとうございました!
