Masamoto KA Santoku Bunka Knife

Forged from premium Blue Steel No.2 and heat-treated to HRC 62-63, this nakiri delivers exceptional sharpness and edge retention that enhances flavor by preserving food texture. The traditional kurouchi finish gives the blade a rugged, rustic appearance that gains character with use and provides slight resistance to rust. The rectangular blade and flat edge excel at chopping leafy greens and root vegetables, while the broad surface makes scooping and transferring ingredients effortless. The lightweight oval-shaped magnolia handle with water buffalo horn ferrule keeps your hand comfortable through extended prep work.
