Hitohira Imojiya TH Stainless Bunka 180mm Pakka Handle (Wa)















The Imojiya line is known for their budget-friendly western series and premium Damascus patterned wa-handled blades. Fitted to the blade is a gray Pakka wood handle that is built to last and gives this knife a solid, secure in-hand grip. The DSR-1K6 steel used in its construction has very high rust and corrosion resistant properties, however, you may find yourself needing to sharpen it more often than other stainless steels.
A Bunka is a Santoku (an all-purpose knife) with a kiritsuke-tip. The accentuated tip is great for delicate work, whilst sharing the same versatility as the Santoku. It is a great knife as an addition to an existing all-purpose blade or as a first all-purpose knife for any cook.
