Tsunehisa G3 Migaki Bunka 170mm. The Bunka is a Japanese knife style that is well established in the western marketplace. Bunka knives are prized for their handy, user-friendly size and gyuto/chef knife-like versatility. Being only 165mm or about 6.5 inches long, this size will appeal to those who feel that a full size gyuto is just too unwieldy or cumbersome.
Ginsan Stainless Steel was created by Hitachi Metals and it is primarily used to make knives that function in ways that are similar to high-carbon steel. But the big plus is the lack of maintenance required over its carbon siblings. The steel composition is very pure compared to most alloys, as it is comprised of just iron, carbon, and chromium. The pure nature of the steel gives it a great ability to take a fine edge and sharpen with ease.
The overall fit and finish of these knives belies the price point. We really appreciate the added hand-chiseled kanji characters along with the good-looking and feeling oval handle. The total package is classic and classy, and we think you will enjoy this versatile cutter in your kitchen.Maker: Tsunehisa
