Hand-forged in Japan from Ginsan (Silver Steel #3), it delivers the sharpness, clean cutting feel, and easy sharpening people love from carbon steel, while staying stainless and easy to live with day to day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bunka profile gives it a slightly more compact, agile feel than a traditional Gyuto. Its taller blade offers comfortable knuckle clearance and great control through vegetables, while the aggressive K-tip adds extra precision for detail work, trimming, and slicing proteins. The fine grind keeps cutting resistance low, making it a seriously capable everyday knife without feeling overly delicate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt in San-Mai construction and finished with a soft Nashiji texture, the blade has a clean, understated look that lets the craftsmanship speak for itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor this release, we paired the popular Ginrei blade with a completely new handle design — and it gives the knife a totally different personality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe handles feature rich red and gold tones with a lacquered sand-style finish, creating a textured surface with impressive depth and variation. The colours shift depending on the light, and no two handles look exactly the same, giving every knife its own character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt’s a combination we really like: proven Ginsan performance, a versatile Bunka profile, and a handle that makes the knife feel far more special and collectible. Easy to maintain, incredibly enjoyable to use, and definitely not one that disappears into the knife block.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Made in Japan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51751834288361,"sku":null,"price":240.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/4368\/6711\/files\/ginrei-silver3-nashiji-lacquered-sand-finish-bunka-170mm-8157507.png?v=1787977030","url":"https:\/\/kakushin.ca\/products\/ginrei-silver3-nashiji-lacquered-sand-finish-bunka-170mm","provider":"Kakushin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
