This beautiful Bunka was hand-forged by Yoshimi Kato, son-in-law of Hiroshi Kato. He was an apprentice to Kanehiro and Hiroshi-San, so he learned forging from the best. In addition to the knives he makes for Masakage, he also has his own series. Of these, this is surely the most beautiful series.

The Tsuchime (hammer) finish stands out in this series. The blade is thinly forged from SG-2 powdered steel. This also makes it light and keeps it pleasant to cut with, even for the cook with long days.

  • Hand-forged SG-2 steel
  • 63 HRC Rockwell
  • Light weight
  • Special hammered pattern
