What to know before you buy

About this knife

  • Bunka knives of this 145mm length are small, for detail work and compact boards.
  • Handle: not stated by the store.
  • VG-10 is a stainless steel, which resists rust better than carbon steel.

Limits to know

  • Like any hard Japanese blade, keep it off bones, frozen food and glass or stone boards.

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. VG-10 is stainless: it won't rust in normal use, so it is the easy choice for everyday cooking.
