175mm 105-layer GoMai Bunka — Aogami 2 core
A precision-minded, artful workhorse: a 175mm Bunka forged with an Aogami 2 core wrapped in 105 alternating layers for a refined, responsive edge and a subtly dramatic damascus surface. The profile balances nimble tip control with generous belly for slicing and prep work; heat treat and polish tuned for long-lasting sharpness and effortless resharpening.
Handle: live-edge crosscut of lightning-struck wild cherry, stabilized with electrified cherry sap for enhanced durability and a luminous, figured finish. The silhouette preserves the natural live edge for tactile character, finished with a rich ebony nose cap to ground the design and add contrast.
Condition note: cosmetically excellent overall — very slight defect where the tang hole reveals a small section of black epoxy. This is purely cosmetic and does not affect structural integrity, balance, or performance.
Crafted in the jLbladeWerks tradition: one-of-a-kind materials, American-made damascus, purpose-built geometry. A distinctive tool for cooks who value form as much as function.
