Hand-crafted using R2/SG2 high-speed powder steel, this Bunka is beautifully grinded with superb thinness behind-the-edge supported by the 62-63 HRC hardness.

The fit and finish is superb for a Kurouchi knife, with a smoothly polished choil and refined Kasumi on the grind.

About Nigara Hamono 二唐刃物

With 350 years of history, starting from making swords for Tsugaru clan in the early Edo period, Nigara Hamono has passed down knowhow and skills for eight generations. Its 5th generation blacksmith Kunitoshi Nigara was a legendary sword maker, earning a long list of accolades, honorary titles and knighthood. The current (8th) generation blacksmith — Tsuyoshi Yoshizawa is supported by his father Toshiju Yoshizawa who has keen interests in art and music. Nigara’s famous Anmon design is the result of Toshiju’s love for Andy Warhol’s artworks. The family business’ expansion into construction steelworks has given Nigara unmatched access to in-house knowhow when it comes to advanced finishing. All these set Nigara apart as one of the most special knife makers in Japan.

Care:

Wash and dry with a soft sponge, and safely store after use. Avoid cutting into bones, frozen foods, hard fruit pits.

Cutting Surface:

Recommended cutting surface: wood, rubberized boards and high-end composites, and quality plastics such as polyethene make acceptable cutting surfaces, and will help protect and prolong knife’s edge. AVOID glass, metal, countertops, and other rigid, non-forgiving surfaces.

Sharpening:

We recommend sharpening all quality Japanese knives on whetstones, as we believe they yield the best results for your knives.

Great product!
I get a dry cough from occasional acid reflux and these lozenges have really helped manage a flare up. They really do the job. These are not cough drops per se, but they seem to coat the throat and help keep coughing spells at bay.

Very helpful for Sjögren’s dry mouth.
Living with Sjögren’s, dry mouth is something I deal with every day, and these lozenges have been very helpful for comfort. They dissolve slowly and help my mouth feel more moisturized and less uncomfortable, especially during long days or when I’m talking a lot. They’re easy to use, have a pleasant taste, and are convenient to carry with me. I like having them as part of my daily routine to help manage dryness and feel more comfortable.
