Hatsukokoro Ryuhyo SG2 Damascus BLACK Bunka 180mm

About the Finish - This knife has been electroplated to achieve the BLACK finish. Electroplated surfaces are durable but do require hand-washing with a gentle cloth.

About the Hatsukokoro Ryuhyo - This Hatsukokoro stunner pairs SG2 Black Damascus steel with a whisper-thin grind that makes it feel like you're wielding air. Crafted in Seki by artisans who've perfected their trades—knife makers, handle makers, sharpeners—it's proof that machine-forged blades can match their hand-forged rivals. Lightweight, laser-sharp, and undeniably gorgeous.

About the Shape - 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.
