Blue Macadamia Bunka
Blue Macadamia Bunka
This One-of-A-Kind Creation is Truly Something Special! Forged to shape out of 1075 carbon steel it is a first for me in the exploration of creating some medium size knives that are weighted a bit heavier (this one coming in a 6-ounces) than I might normally create…and I am very excited about the results.
Of course the star here is the Truly Stunning piece of Stabilized and Dyed Macadamia Wood. As you would expect Macadamia Wood is dense, tough and durable; the stabilization process making it all that much more durable especially for a kitchen knife. Paired with a piece of rare Westinghouse Blue Glass Micarta for a bolster-laminate, this handle is shaped in a modified Wa shape different than my normal shield shape and with generous enough girth for control and balance to the blade.
This knife is strong and capable of just about anything you could ask it to accomplish, be it splitting hard squash or slicing sashimi, and breaking down your favorite vegetable into detailed culinary cuts or any way you please, this knife can do it no problem!
With a Blade Length of 8” to the front of the handle and exhibiting a cutting edge just a hair over 7 & 5/8” and with a beautiful distal taper that keeps much of the weight-on the blade, it will effortlessly cut through whatever you place in it’s way.
Blade width at the heel is a tad over 2”
Overall Length is 13.25”…so, a very cool compact size for a main knife !!!
Anyone who gets this knife will be trilled with it. It totally falls into the category of “Knives I’d like to keep for myself” :)
This knife comes with my certificate and care instructions and in a zippered pouch.
