Hardened to approximately 61 HRC, the blade provides a great balance between sharpness, durability, and ease of sharpening. Its distinctive Tsuchime (hammered) finish adds character, while the thin grind behind the edge and approximately 2mm spine deliver smooth, precise cutting with minimal resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 165mm Tall Bunka is a versatile Japanese kitchen knife designed to handle a wide variety of everyday cutting tasks. Its taller blade provides generous knuckle clearance and plenty of surface area for scooping and transferring chopped ingredients. The relatively straight cutting edge excels at chopping, slicing, and dicing vegetables, while the distinctive K-tip (reverse Tanto tip) allows for precise detail work, trimming, and intricate cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompared to a traditional Bunka, the taller blade offers additional clearance and a more substantial feel without sacrificing maneuverability. Its compact 165mm length makes it particularly enjoyable for cooks who prefer a shorter, more controlled knife while still benefiting from the versatility of a full-height chef's blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompleting the knife is a beautiful Half-Burnt Oak Wa-handle, featuring a striking contrast between natural oak grain and charred wood. This traditional Japanese-style handle is lightweight, comfortable, and well-balanced, adding a unique rustic touch to the knife's overall appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you're a professional chef or a passionate home cook, this Okeya Tall Bunka delivers excellent versatility, precise cutting performance, distinctive Japanese styling, and outstanding value for the price.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Made in Japan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67817554673897,"sku":null,"price":395.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/4368\/6711\/files\/OkeyaBurntOakGinsanTall-Bunka165mm.png?v=1793390271","url":"https:\/\/kakushin.ca\/fr\/products\/okeya-burnt-oak-ginsan-tall-bunka-165mm","provider":"Kakushin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
