Takeda NAS Bunka 170mm
About the Shape: The Bunka looks like a bonafide badass. It is a multi-purpose knife akin to the Santoku. “Bunka” translates to “culture.” A cross between the Nakiri and Gyuto, Bunkas can do it all. It’s the best of both worlds with the volume cranked to 11.
Like all of Takeda's knives, the Takeda bunka has more personality and charm than it knows what to do with. Easily usable as a nakiri, you couldn't ask for a better blade for the finest, thinnest, most precise slicing work you need to do for your fine kitchen creations.
About the Blacksmith: Shosui Takeda’s knives kick-ass, simple as that. A third-generation master blacksmith, Takeda-san was born and raised in Niimi, Okayama, Japan. After he graduated from university in Tokyo, he returned to his hometown to succeed his father as a master blacksmith for Takeda Hamono. Since 1985, he has strived to produce the very best hand-forged blades and tools. Each blade is a unique work of art and has a certain presence. Forging knives, axes, hatchets, sickles, and scythes, it seems nothing is out of the question for Takeda-san.
