Too good to keep a secret
I purchased this same knife earlier and like it so much, that I purchased this second one as a gift for my Grandson who is into Japanese knives. I am sure that he will like it as well.

Great knife. Great Gift
Bought this for a white elephant party. It was the most fought over item the whole night.
The couple who got it have told me it is the best knife they have ever owned.

Excellent daily use knife
I keep this bunka in the knife block for family to use, and they absolutely appreciate it. (I do have the SG2 version for myself ;-)
It is easier to keep sharp than the SG2 version so for family and daily prep is actually is used more often than not. also the handle is a nice western style chunky handle that has good balance and grip.
Overall a steel of a knife !
