Myabi’s Kaizen II collection has a beautiful modern design with a Damascus pattern dramatically darkened through acid dipping. The Japanese craftsmanship of this line is a work of art that is the ultimate in precision cutting. The striking black pakkawood handle is easy to hold with a comfortable grip for stress-free cutting.
The Bunka knife is a lighter, thinner, and shorter alternative to a classic Western-style Chef’s knife. It blends the versatility of the classic Chef style with the precision of a Santoku. The Bunka has a wide, stocky profile like a Santoku, but with the sharply angled tip of the Kiritsuke for added precision and dexterity.
