Shizu Hamono GEN Bunka 190 mm — Back at Santoku Montenegro!
We are pleased to welcome Shizu Hamono back to the Santoku Montenegro collection, bringing together Japanese tradition, quality craftsmanship, and functional design.
The GEN Bunka 190 mm is a versatile Japanese kitchen knife recognised by its distinctive K-tip profile, created by the angled transition between the blade’s spine and its pointed tip. This design gives the knife a unique appearance while allowing precise work with the tip.
Bunka is an excellent choice for a wide range of everyday kitchen tasks. It is well suited to chopping and slicing vegetables, cutting boneless meat and fish, and performing detailed work that benefits from excellent control. Its relatively flat cutting section works well for chopping on a board, while the angular tip is useful for precise cuts and finer preparation.
With a 190 mm blade, this knife offers a practical balance of cutting length, manoeuvrability and versatility, making it a strong choice for cooks looking for one Japanese knife capable of handling many kitchen tasks.
The blade is made from VG10 stainless steel, valued for its ability to achieve excellent sharpness and precise cutting performance. The GEN series combines understated styling with everyday practicality and Japanese knife-making character.
