Shibata Koutetsu SG2 Migaki 135mm Ko-Bunka
Introducing the Shibata Koutetsu 135mm Ko-Bunka Kitchen Knife, a masterpiece by legendary blade smith and sharpener, Takayuki Shibata. Shibata-san's unique design philosophy is evident in this exceptional knife, made with R-2 powdered stainless steel alloy for the inner layer, coated with a softer stainless steel outer layer, and finished with a hand-executed rough finish for optimal food release.
This knife, inspired by a blend of gyuto and nakiri, features a slight curve for reduced friction and optimal food contact. Its sharp point is perfect for scoring vegetables, squid, or chicken. With a HRC rating of 62-63, the knife is easy to sharpen, maintains its edge longer, and resists damage.

Its compact size and laser-like blade ensure nimble and quick cutting, while the generous blade height provides extra finger clearance. The mirror-polished spine enhances control, comfort, and safety.
Designed for discerning chefs, this knife embodies the philosophy of "Art over beauty," making it a true work of art for the kitchen. Experience the difference with the Shibata Koutetsu 135mm Ko-Bunka Kitchen Knife.
