Sanai Bunka – Touroku Sakai

Part of the Sanai series, this Bunka represents the work of skilled artisans from across Japan, unified under the Touroku Sakai guild. Known for honoring traditional Japanese techniques while producing high-performance kitchen tools, these craftsmen bring experience and purpose to every knife they make.

The Bunka is closely related to the Santoku and equally versatile, with a broad profile suited to vegetables, fish, and proteins. This particular design features a moderate curve in the blade, making it especially well-suited for the push-forward style of cutting favored in Japanese technique. Its pointed tip adds precision for detail work while maintaining balance for general prep.

Forged with an AUS-10 stainless steel core and 67 layers of Damascus, the blade is finished with traditional tsuchime hammer marks that reduce friction during slicing. The octagonal handle is shaped from oak and finished in Sanai—a striking, layered indigo inspired by the aizome dyeing tradition. The deep sapphire, 燦燦と輝く藍色, reflects a calm strength and timeless beauty rooted in the Japanese Samurai culture.

Purposeful, balanced, and built for everyday versatility, the Sanai Bunka stands out as a reliable and refined kitchen tool.
