Tomura Ko-Bunka

The bunka that acts like a petty, which is a pretty sweet range for one tool. 163mm from heel to tip, with a core steel of SKS93 and soft stainless cladding makes it pretty fuss free and easy to sharpen. The close to flat edge profile affords very precise slicing on the board or in hand, and the combination of being exceedingly lightweight along with the handle rake and rebated choil afford a closer, tighter, more controlled grip than most knives of this general class can offer. Octagonal wa handle completes the setup, made of solid oak with a partial shou sugi ban finish.
