Santoku / Bunka (General Purpose) Japanese Kitchen Knives

Santoku / Bunka kitchen knives are also known as General Purpose Kitchen knives.
These Japanese Kitchen knives are very versatile and great to use in the kitchen. Their blades are usually between 165 to185mm in length and the blade height is taller than the Gyuto (Chef Knife) so they are a good knife to consider as a start point when looking at Japanese Kitchen Knives.

The polished (Migaki), hammered (tsuchime) finish makes them an extremely attractive addition to the kitchen. The traditional handle is D shaped Ebony handle with a Pakka wood ferrule. These handles are comfortable to use in either right or left hand and the diameter of the handle gives you a very comfortable grip.
