Damascus steel Bunka Petty, 13.5 cm blade. The Petty knife is the Japanese equivalent of a small utility knife. It is ideal for small, detailed cutting jobs where a full-size chef's knife would be too cumbersome.
The Damascus Steel Bunka Petty blade is forged from AUS-10 steel, a premium steel that combines a high carbon content for hardness and edge life with the optimum amount of chromium to prevent oxidation.
Bunka (文化) means 'culture' in Japanese. The name derives from its traditional use in making cultural dishes in Japanese homes.
Like the regular Petty knife, the Bunka Petty has a medium-sized blade with a flat profile; however, their blade tips are shaped very differently. Bunka knives are recognizable by their 'reverse Tanto' profile, also known as a 'K-tip', which makes them more precise than a classic rounded blade.
Japanese precision, Western robustness. The best of both worlds.
