Product description

KOTAI knives are all handmade with high-quality Japanese steel from Aichi.

Kotai knives combine traditional knife-making methods with advanced technological processes such as vacuum heat treatment and cryogenic cooling to optimize the mechanical properties of the steel.

Rediscover the art of cooking with Kotai knives.

Experience the sharpness and precision of handmade knives made from the finest materials.

Elevate your culinary creations to new heights with the perfect blend of tradition and modern innovation.

Similar to the regular Petty knife, the Bunka Petty knife features a small blade with a flat profile, but the tip of the blade is shaped quite differently.

Bunka knives are recognizable by their “reverse Tanto” profile, also known as “K-tip,” making them more precise than a classic round knife.

With a knife long enough for serious cooking yet more maneuverable than a full-size Kiritsuke, the Bunka Petty is ideal for quick and precise cuts.

The knife is forged with Japanese 440C high-carbon stainless steel and stays sharp up to 10 times longer than other knives.

440C combines a high carbon content for hardness and edge retention with the optimal amount of chromium for corrosion resistance.
