About the knife type: Bunka (chef's knife)

A bunka is similar to a santoku, but has a sharper, angled tip. It chops vegetables, slices meat and fillets fish.

The tip is good for fine work, but can break more easily, so the knife needs more experience and precision.

About the steel: Blue #2 (Aogami #2)

Offers a balance between sharpness, durability and ease of sharpening. Versatile and common among professional chefs. Clean and dry straight after use; avoid long exposure to moisture. Develops a protective patina over time that reduces the risk of rust and gives the blade its own look.

Care and maintenance

Carbon steel: rinse and dry the knife right after use. A little dark patina is normal and protects the steel.

Never the dishwasher. Use a cutting board of wood or plastic, not glass or stone.
