Minomo Blacksmith Bunka Knife 210mm

The quality of the handcraft is very good when it comes to the shape and quality of steel, unfortunately I can only give this 4 stars instead of 5 since the knife I received wasn't sharpened, it only had the rough shape and edge, it wasn't able to cut newspaper for an example, I sharpened it myself with the stones I have at home and now the knife is SUPER sharp with a very nice edge retention

Beautiful knife!!! The work of true craftsman at Minomo Blacksmith. Very proud to own this knife. And a huge thanks to everyone at Japanese Food Craftsman for working through the international shipping issues to the US. It took some time but they they kept good communication and made sure the knife got to me. Thanks again for all your help! Look forward to purchasing more from you.

Received mine yesterday here in the USA.

Beautiful knife. Very light in the hand for a knife blade 8" in length. A few stokes on the stone made it hair popping sharp. Thank you very much. I love the blade.
