Introducing the Hanmā Custom Series, featuring the Bunka model with a 180 mm VG10 stainless steel blade, made in Japan. This collection blends the timeless performance of traditional Japanese blades with a distinctive custom wa-handle, carefully assembled in-house at Kakushin for a truly unique finish.
This particular piece is fitted with a rich blue stabilized wood handle, paired with a matching ferrule and separated by a sleek white ring, creating a clean visual contrast that highlights the craftsmanship of the assembly.
The Bunka profile, recognizable by its angled tip and tall blade, is a highly versatile shape suited for a wide range of kitchen tasks — from slicing and dicing to precise vegetable work. Combined with the balanced octagonal wa-handle, it delivers both comfort and control while bringing a bold, modern aesthetic to a classic Japanese knife design.
◻️ Additional Information
Please note that colours, shading, and overall appearance may vary slightly between photos and the product you receive. Lighting, camera exposure, and reflections on materials like steel, epoxy, and wood can all create subtle differences.
Many of our items are handmade, which means each piece has its own character. Minor variations in pattern, texture, or finish are normal and part of the craft.
If you’d like to see additional photos or close-ups of any item, feel free to request them before or after placing your order—especially for one-of-a-kind pieces. We’re always happy to help you choose the perfect knife or handle.
