Tokushu Stainless Clad White #2 Tsuchime Bunka 175 mm con mango de palisandro y ébano

this knife is great. I went back and forth on what kiritsuke gyuto to get and ended up getting this tokushu white #2 kiritsuke. I love it. Will be purchasing from here again in the future.

It was my first set of Japanese knives, and I'm glad i chose to purchase it on their website. The staff was really helpful via the chat and the knives are a thing of beauty. Sharp and elegant. Highly recommended.

This is my first carbon steel knife and I’m really happy with it! The clad stamped pattern is really nice (rough yet somewhat glossy). The handle on this knife really stands out though my knife does not have as much contrast between the rosewood and ebony as the ones in the display picture. It also arrives dry so I put some mineral oil on it. This made the colors much deeper but reduced contrast even more. (The photos are without mineral oil)

The Tokusho White #2 Gyuto is a wonderful knife one that I’m proud to add to my collection. It has a good weight not as heavy as my Hatsukokoro knives but still comfortable in the hand. The edge is sharp right out of the box so I took it through its pace. I wanted to see for its size how would it fare doing intricate work like thinly slicing green onions lengthwise for my ramen and mincing shallots. I worked out flawless! Even for its size I can control the tip of the knife as it cut. After working with it for a while I took it to the strop and did a few passes and the edge was good as new.

Also I want to make a “Shout Out” to Customer Service for all their help.

The reason I got this knife is because I already have the 210mm Gyuto version of the same line and I really like it.

The fit and finish of this knife is pretty good, too. And the handle made of wood is actually quite beautiful.

The OOTB blade is really sharp as well. My guess is that it would have had a sharpening before it was shipped. I'm really thankful for that. The back of the blade is about 2 mm thick. I have been cutting mostly vegetables - carrots, cucumbers, tomatoes, eggplant, peppers, cauliflower, parsley, celery.
The knife just gets the job done with ease. Due to the hammered surface, the food will not stick to the blade. It won't cause much food to separate, but it won't stick to the blade. It can be easily removed by hand.

This knife is a combination of beautiful craftsmanship and great performance. It is highly recommended. If you've used a Tsunehisa knife before, you already have an idea of what to expect.

The shipping and delivery was handled and executed in a super efficient manner.
Many, many thanks!

Love it. Use it daily at work it was a little less sharp out of the box than I thought it would be but I worked on it for about 30 minutes and it gets insanely sharp. Will be purchasing other products from this line soon!

This knife came out extremely sharp out of the box. I ran it trough a 6000 stone before using, but it probably wasn't needed. I love the aesthetics and the geometry of this knife. It looks pretty flat in the pictures, but it actually rocks very nicely. I can't give it 5 stars because the handle is too small. The handle should be a little longer and thicker because this knife has a pretty long blade.

Feels good in hand, very sharp. Good for small vegetables

The knife performs wonderfully and has already become a valuable part of my kitchen. Looks pretty, too!

On my way to Nashville from Atlanta I decided to make a small detour and stop at Tokushu Knife in Chattanooga. That turned out to be a great (and probably expensive) decision. I had a nikiri in the car that I was planning on dropping off in Atlanta to be sharpened. I decided to see what Tokushu could do with it. They (Boris) knocked it out of the park! While I was waiting on the knife I looked in the showroom and found my new Bunka! The team at Tokushu were extremely helpful and had the knife set up for me in no time. Out of the box sharpness is amazing and the fit and finish is impeccable. Most importantly is how it cuts! I Am so pleased I made the detour and plan on being back soon!

Another great knife… if looking for a knife that keeps the sharpness longer, this is your knife!
Great piece for the price!

This knife exceeds my expectations for quality. The shipping was fast and I can’t get enough of using my new knife.

I have used this knife for over a year. The edge stays sharp and the blade is easy to keep clean. I use a drop of camellia oil on the blade after I wash it. The tsuchime finish does help prevent food sticking to the blade.

I was unsure of what knives to get so I emailed Tony and he was able to provide recommendations based on my friend’s hand sizes. Amazing service. The colors on this one are great. The red and black go very well together.

Well it makes certain mundane tasks around the kitchen fun and whimsical even. I feel like a ninja. No, really, it’s awesome. Very light and sharp. I got compliments over the holidays on my slicing skills even. Super cool!

Excellent

Got this knife a few months ago, I love it! Razor sharp and comfy in the hand. Also shipping and communication was best I’ve had.

This knife was super sharp and a great value. Love it

Nice knife, very sharp 👍

It was great!!! Thank you for for adding some Christmas spirit to the gift note. He loved his gift immensely!!

This was a nice budget option to try out white 2. Didnt realize till I got it that the knife has a super subtle hollow grind. The fit and finish is really good for the price. Sharpened up and deburred just like the rumors.

The knives I ordered came in a lot sooner than I anticipated. The extra sharpening from the team is greatly appreciated. I will definitely continue to buy my knives from Tokushu.

After using this knife for about a couple of months, I am blown away by how good it is. Fit, finish, performance- it's all there in spades, and the value is just unbelievable. I of course added Mr. Peters' sharpening service (just do it!) And the edge will cut standing hair and hasn't needed any attention. This knife would be a deal at a significantly higher price- and as of this writing is on sale making it a no-brainer. It handles so well- nimble, but substantial enough to do anything you SHOULD be doing and more. Simply put, it's easily one of the best purchases I've ever made. (And a shout out to customer service- always absolutely top-notch) Thanks Fellas!

Update - I'm pleased to provide an updated review, as Tokushu took the initiative to address the issues I previously mentioned regarding the handle's rough finish and jagged edges. Tokushu sent me a new knife with a much better handle, and I'm happy to report that the improvements have made a significant difference in my overall experience.

In terms of performance, the knife's steel quality and sharpness remain top-notch. It has maintained its edge remarkably well, and I continue to be impressed with its cutting ability.

Tokushu's commitment to customer satisfaction by addressing the handle issue is commendable. It's clear that they take feedback seriously and are dedicated to improving their products.

Purchased this knife recently and am very impressed with the steel quality and finish. However, the handle’s finish is very rough and is extremely jagged at the area where the handle meets steel.

Seems like a great knife, quite beautiful and sized great for all around kitchen work.

If you've used аTsunehisa knife before, you already know what to expect. This is a beautiful knife.
Very light - 150 g
The wooden handle ensures a good grip.
The beautifully hammered finish allows the food not to stick. It won't cause the food to separate, but it won't stick to the blade and can be easily removed by hand.
The blade is stupid sharp out of the box.
I used it mostly for cutting veggies, some meat and even slicing bread. With this knife I was able to get the job both easily and effortlessly done.

Fantastic all purpose knife. You can't go wrong with it!
