Bunka knives are a rarity among traditional Japanese kitchen knives and serve a variety of purposes, whether it's slicing or slicing vegetables. These knife-like tools feature a straighter and wider blade than a Yanagi knife for vegetables and are longer than an Usuba knife, making them ideal for precise filleting of fish. Handling this unique Bunka style requires a certain level of experience with traditional Japanese knives. Historically, these knives were used exclusively by chefs as status symbols.


stainless steel with a special cutting feel

With its chromium content of 13-14.5%, Gingami 3 falls into the stainless steel category. Although it is considered corrosion-resistant, its cutting feel is more surprising, with a similarity to high-quality carbon steel.

Practical resharpening for professional chefs

Professional chefs value Gingami 3 not only for its edge retention, but also for its suitability for easy resharpening with whetstones. The combination with a soft, rust-proof SUS405 outer layer makes sharpening even easier. The neoclassical Nashiji finish also gives the series an irresistible appeal.

Nashiji finish: A touch of rusticity

The term "Nashiji" (pear skin pattern) describes a technique that makes the surface of a blade appear unfinished and rustic.
