Description
The Aokitae range from Hatsukokoro is forged in Aogami #2 (Blue 2) carbon steel with a rustic kurouchi finish. This 200 mm bunka is a versatile chef's knife with the typical angled tip, and the walnut handle gives a light, balanced grip. The carbon steel takes a very sharp edge and is easy to sharpen, but should be wiped dry after use.
HATSUKOKORO · Amagasaki

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)
