Today, the 5 heirs of the family tradition forge both traditional swords and high-quality kitchen knives! They are forged Warikomi-style, by splitting a piece of soft carbon steel and inserting a core of harder carbon steel.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhen someone says they are after a 'workhorse' knife, this is what I think of. The blades are thicker, ground with a more robust bevel and a more rustic finish. For me, this is the perfect kitchen knife. Super sharp, but able to stand up to more heavy handed use. I'm also a sucker for the dark kurouchi finish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Shape -\u003c\/b\u003e The Bunka looks like a bonafide badass. It is a multi purpose knife akin to the Santoku. “Bunka” translates to “culture.” A cross between the Nakiri and Gyuto, Bunkas can do it all. It’s the best of both worlds with the volume cranked to 11.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shiro Kunimitsu","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46797790511278,"sku":"SRKMA2KR160SA","price":315.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0780\/9439\/files\/Shiro-kunimitsu-aogami-kurouchi-chikuzen-bunka-160mm-1_8ebf1646-6c34-4f0d-8f02-26e94660f964.jpg?v=1769544975","url":"https:\/\/knifewear.mom\/products\/shiro-kunimitsu-aogami-kurouchi-santoku-160mm","provider":"Knifewear - Handcrafted Japanese Kitchen Knives","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
