Like the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/gyuto-chefs-knives-c36\"\u003echef's knife\u003c\/a\u003e, the bunka knife is versatile and lets you cut, chop, mince and slice a variety of foods. Its pointed blade is reminiscent of a traditional Japanese sword once used by samurai.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA typically Japanese San Mai design\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align:justify;\"\u003eThe blade is made using a process called \u003cstrong\u003eSan Mai\u003c\/strong\u003e. The inner part of the blade is made from a Japanese alloy, Ginsan. This steel has a high carbon content reaching 0.95%. This significant level considerably hardens the edge, whose sharpness grows and lasts longer. Each side of the core is then covered with a layer of stainless steel that provides protection against the shocks and various impacts the blade encounters. The layering of the steels is visible on the blade, where you can make out small waves close to the edge. With 60 HRC on the Rockwell scale, the blade holds its edge over time and needs infrequent sharpening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eEnju wood for comfort and elegance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align:justify;\"\u003eThe handle is made from \u003cstrong\u003eenju wood\u003c\/strong\u003e, a species marked by a light, very harmonious tone. This Asian wood is both rigid and lightweight. It shows different grain on each piece, making your knife one of a kind! The handle is firmly joined to the blade, all the more so as a binder is injected to fill the gap between the two parts. This ensures the wood stays watertight and the knife stays hygienic. A glossy finish is applied to the handle right at the end of manufacture, to add an even more striking contrast with the blade. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA knife with real traditional value\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003etraditional Japanese knife\u003c\/strong\u003e stands out for the simplicity of its design, the quality of the materials used, and the formidable effectiveness of its edge. To bring out its character, the craftsmen have added the brand logo to the front of the blade, and discreet kanji on the back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eYour knife should be cleaned by hand, avoiding submerging the handle too much in water. Then dry it with a soft cloth and store it somewhere dry.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0963\/1141\/1030\/files\/BUNKA_2016_2C5CM_e6e591bf-1fa9-4233-8632-320b67ead895.png\" alt=\"Couteau japonais artisanal bunka 16,5cm Wusaki Migaki G3\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eJapanese craftsmanship in your kitchen equipment\u003c\/h4\u003e","brand":"Couteaux du Chef","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51978976952662,"sku":"HLWWUS-SHI-8603","price":189.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0963\/1141\/1030\/files\/118425.jpg?v=1788871424","url":"https:\/\/www.wusaki.com\/en\/products\/wusaki-migaki-g3-handcrafted-japanese-bunka-knife-16-5cm-p268","provider":"Wusaki","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
