The bunka, “cultural knife”, is inter-changeable with the santoku though the sharper angled tip is very handy for fine knife work. Great for home cooks and professionals.

Very popular with Japanese blacksmiths, it takes a fine edge and is very easy to sharpen. Shirogami comes in 3 grades with various levels of carbon, Shirogami #1, #2 & #3.
