Introducing the Hanmā Custom Series, featuring a 180mm Bunka in VG10 stainless steel, made in Japan — but taken further through our in-house assembly here at Kakushin.
This one… is something else. We paired this blade with a stunning Amboyna wood handle, known for its deep, natural richness and complex grain that almost looks alive under the light. It’s not a wood you see often — and when you do, it’s usually reserved for pieces meant to stand out.
To push the contrast, there is a crisp white epoxy tip, followed by a white spacer, and finished with a black ferrule. The combination creates a sharp, layered look — clean, intentional, and striking without being overdone. Light meets dark, natural meets modern — and it just works.
On the performance side, the Bunka remains one of the most versatile profiles out there. With its angled K-tip, tall blade, and flat-ish profile, it handles everything from precise tip work to clean push cuts and fast vegetable prep. The VG10 core offers excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and an easy-to-maintain experience — a perfect match for both home cooks and pros.
And like all our customs — once it’s gone, that exact build is gone with it.
◻️ 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.
