Bunka (Kiritsuke Style Santoku) AUS10 Steel

195mm Bunka – Hammered AUS-10 Core with Stainless Cladding

This 195mm Bunka knife—often referred to as a kiritsuke-style santoku—combines striking aesthetics with precision cutting performance. Handcrafted in Seki City, Japan, it features a 3-layer construction with a razor-sharp AUS-10 steel core for excellent edge retention and toughness, clad in stainless SUS-410 steel to resist rust and ease maintenance.

The hammered tsuchime finish isn’t just beautiful—it also helps reduce drag and keeps food from sticking to the blade.
