Cuchillo Bunka de Acero Azul #1 Kurouchi Buffalo con mango de Ébano, 165 milímetros

¥27,800

Los Cuchillos Bunka son unas de las pocas hojas tradicionales multipropósito Japonesas, y pueden ser usados como un cuchillo cortador o un cuchillo de vegetales. Estos cuchillos con forma de espada cuentan con un borde más derecho y ancho que el de un Cuchillo Yanagi para vegetales, y una hoja más larga que la de un Cuchillo Usuba para cortar pescados con facilidad. El usuario de este cuchillo necesita ser más habilidoso con cuchillos tradicionales Japoneses para poder utilizar este diseño único de estilo Bunka apropiadamente. Tradicionalmente, estos cuchillos son solamente usados por Chefs Jefes como un símbolo de estatus y renombre.

Aogami No.2 (Hitachi Metals Ltd.) is made by adding Chromium and Tungsten / Wolfram to Shirogami No.2. This results in increased toughness and the production of hard carbide molecules which improve edge retention. Many knife users have noted that while Aogami No.2 is very similar to Shirogami No.2 in terms of edge sharpness, it has slightly superior edge retention.The traditional style of Japanese carving has a long history of simplicity and inspiration. Although this technique (Chokin) is gradually disappearing into history, we hope to do our best to let more people feel its beauty.This is a limited edition of our kitchen knives in collaboration with the carver Asamura Takao, whose over 50 years of carving skills make each piece look so spiritual. Each design has been polished for months, even a year or more.Kurouchi Finish, the unprocessed (black) part on the top side of the blade has already developed a dark patina, which protects the blade and gives it a traditional Japanese look.

HANDMADE FORGING

With the traditional forging process, the molecules of the iron material are finely tuned, leading to the completion of a "living kitchen knife" that breathes.

DURABILITY

The process of heating and forging each material for mold making is repeated three or four times to quickly shape the blade and create durability before the carbon is released from the steel causing it to lose its original strength.

SHARPNESS

The blade is the most important factor in achieving the best possible sharpness. It is polished in our own blade factory to produce uncompromising sharpness.

HANDLE

The highest priority is placed on sturdiness, a sense of luxury, and a shape that is easy to grip and does not cause fatigue even after long hours of use.

Perfection found. Bunka Blue steel #2 Kurouchi Ebony Handle 165mm

I was hopeful but waited to see, feel, and hold this bespoke blade. When it arrived I was blown away by first impressions. The beautiful box and lovely card made me feel as though I had made an investment in pure history and ancient art. And now it was in front of me. I felt the blade's thickness, the undulation showing me that this was truly handmade. The colour the nuances and the razor gleaming edge calls out for use. It shaves vegetables and slices meat cleanly and effortlessly like none other. And definitely, the food tastes better with a fine-hewn blade. This transcends everything I thought. In time I will be back. I would like a few more in my busy kitchen. Sadly the import duties are a blow when you have to pay such high tariffs but this is totally out of this company's hands. But I am not deterred. Thanks for the informative website, the care and the support. Yours sincerely. Paul Hildyard. Wild Bread Co. Hilton. South Africa.
