This 110 mm Mini Bunka combines compact proportions with a distinctive, wide blade profile, offering precision and versatility for detailed kitchen tasks.
The blade is forged from in-house made Damascus, combining layers of 15N20 and 1084 around an Apex Ultra core hardened to approximately 65 HRC. The flowing Damascus pattern highlights the intricate layered construction, giving this compact blade a distinctive character.
A convex grind provides smooth, controlled cutting performance, while the generous 54 mm heel height offers excellent knuckle clearance despite the short blade. Weighing just 126 grams, the knife combines a compact cutting edge with a substantial, comfortable profile.
The handle features beautifully figured ringed gidgee, African Blackwood, and a subtle G10 spacer. The rich natural textures and contrasting dark tones create an elegant, understated finish.

Carbon steel rewards a little attention: wash by hand, dry straight away and never use the dishwasher. A light patina will develop with use.
