Silver Peacock - Misuto - Aogami super - Bunka 180mm
$259.00
The Silver Peacock Misuto Bunka 180 mm is a versatile Japanese kitchen knife that combines exceptional cutting performance with practical everyday usability. Featuring the distinctive Bunka profile with its precise reverse tanto (k-tip), it excels at vegetable preparation, meat, fish, and detailed tip work.
At its heart is a premium Aogami Super (Blue Super) carbon steel core, renowned for its outstanding sharpness, edge retention, and ease of sharpening. Using the traditional awase construction, this core is laminated between protective outer layers, reducing the amount of exposed carbon steel. This design offers much of the cutting performance of carbon steel while making the knife easier to maintain than a monosteel carbon blade.
The blade is paired with a traditional natural maple wood wa-handle, creating a lightweight, forward-balanced knife that feels agile, comfortable, and responsive throughout long prep sessions.
Whether you're preparing fine brunoise, chiffonade herbs, slicing proteins, or tackling everyday kitchen tasks, the Bunka's combination of a tall blade, acute tip, and exceptional steel makes it one of the most versatile Japanese knife profiles available.

Care
Although the outer layers help protect the blade, the Aogami Super core remains a high-carbon steel and should be cared for accordingly. Hand wash only, dry thoroughly after use, and avoid leaving acidic foods on the edge for extended periods. With proper care, the exposed cutting edge will naturally develop a protective patina over time while maintaining its exceptional performance.
