A 'Bunka' is a less well-known Japanese blade profile characterised by its cut-off diagonal tip. Our 14cm 'Mini' version is extremely versatile, providing a smaller and more agile alternative to the Santoku. It's optimised for chopping small fruit and veg and the squared off tip can make the knife feel a bit safer in the hand. It has a good shape for carrying prepared food around the kitchen, too.
