{"product_id":"apex-bunka-185mm","title":"Apex Bunka 185mm","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe bunka is the versatile chef's knife for people who have outgrown the idea that a chef's knife has to look like a chef's knife. Compact, tall, and built for precision, the Monolith Apex Bunka 185mm is the knife that stays on the board breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The one that handles the vegetable work, the detail cuts, the mid-meal improvisation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt 185mm \/ 7.2\" with 56mm of heel height, the profile is purpose-built: enough mass at the rear for demanding tasks, enough geometry at the front for the kind of fine, controlled work the bunka profile is known for. The same Apex construction as the gyuto applies here: stainless cladding over pure nickel over a Takefu Aogami Super core, forge-finished flats contrasting belt-finished convex bevels, a hard sharp edge backed by a tapering spine that arrives at a low, precise tip. Small-batch and fully handmade. A workhorse that doesn't look like one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe walnut handle and solid brass bolster are sculpted in a traditional wa form of flat side faces and gently rounded tops and bottoms, ideal for every grip and every hand. Paired with a handmade leather saya crafted locally in Virginia, included exclusively with every knife, this may be the ultimate do-all, take-everywhere culinary knife.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI have one at home.
