Existing at the intersection between a nakiri and gyuto knife, a bunka (meaning culture) knife is an all-purpose workhorse that may just be your next favorite chef's knife. With its easily maneuverable 6.5" length, it will make quick work of vegetables, fish, meat, and even some detail work using its triangular tip area. The blade is made of a high carbon stainless steel honed with Sumikama’s "zero edge" pre-sharpening technology that gives it both lasting sharpness and rigidity right out of the box.

About Seki City
Sumikama Cutlery is located in Seki City, a city synonymous with knife production in Japan. Over 780 years ago, the city attracted swordsmiths whose creations were revered throughout the country. When swords fell out of fashion, the industry turned its attention to cutlery that holds the same level of reverence as the swords of the past.
