Bunka Shibui

The highlight of Julys Arsenal are Bunkas for good reason.
My appreciation grows more and more as I use them more regularly.
Much a like a Gyuto but with a steeper drop from the spine to the Tip and added heel height makes this Bunka just feel right on all levels.
This Bunka as a true performer.

The Taki II is a very sleek gyuto, much inspired like a scaled kiritsuke for its edge curvature.

Aided by a technical S grind, this gyuto helps in food release and ease of cutting.

No knife is the same as they are intended to be unique to their
owner.

High Carbon steel naturally oxidizes. It is favored amongst cook and professional chefs for its ease of sharpening and razor bone edge. After use, it will patina, call it your own culinary footprint in your blade. A simple wipe down is necessary after use. Apply mineral oil.
