What to know before you buy
About this knife
- Bunka knives of this 180mm length are a mid size that suits smaller boards and kitchens.
- It has a Japanese-style (wa) handle: a handle without a metal bolster, set into the blade with a hidden tang.
- Shirogami #1 (White #1) is a carbon steel that rusts and stains if it is left wet, so it is wiped dry after every use.
- It is double-bevel (sharpened on both sides), so it works for left- and right-handed cooks.
Limits to know
- Carbon steel develops a patina and can rust; it is not for a knife that sits wet in the sink.
Written from this knife's catalog record (steel, handle, length, grind). Knife Fit has not tested it; see how we work.
Good to know for beginners
A bunka is a compact all-rounder with a pointed k-tip for fine work, made for push-cutting. Shirogami #1 (White #1) is carbon steel: very sharp and easy to sharpen, but wipe it dry while you cook or it will rust.
