Specifications
The Nakagawa Aogami #1 Damascus Bunka 180mm is a handcrafted Japanese knife by Satoshi Nakagawa, with sharpening by Morihiro Hamono in Sakai, Japan. This bunka knife features a Damascus finish and a core of Aogami #1 steel with iron cladding. The iron cladding allows the entire blade to develop a patina over time, a desirable characteristic for those who appreciate the unique aesthetic of carbon steel knives. The bunka is perfect for various kitchen tasks, making it a great choice if you prefer short knives for quick preps or if you have limited kitchen space.
