Touroku Sakai Blue Super Stainless Clad S-Grind Nakiri 🔥🔪

This 160mm Touroku Sakai Nakiri is a strong example of what makes Blue Super carbon steel so appealing.

Chef Elan walks through the Blue Super core, stainless cladding, S-grind geometry for better food release, and the hardness range that gives this knife excellent long edge retention. He also covers the maintenance side of carbon steel, including why regular light upkeep matters and how a healthy patina helps protect the blade over time.

The profile is another highlight, with a little extra curve up front that makes this nakiri feel especially comfortable in motion on the board.

The Carbon Steel Knife I’d Recommend First 🔥🔪

A lot of people are curious about carbon steel, but not everyone wants to jump straight into a fully reactive blade.

That’s what makes this 180mm Ittetsu gyuto such a smart option. Chef Elan recommends it as a first carbon steel knife because the Blue Super carbon steel core delivers excellent sharpness and long edge retention, while the stainless cladding helps reduce how much exposed carbon steel you need to manage.

It’s approachable, highly versatile, and a great way to get into carbon steel without taking on more maintenance than you’re ready for.

Why this tall bunka stands out 🔥🔪

This Sakai Takayuki 195mm Tall Bunka stands out for two big reasons: the extra blade height and the coreless Damascus construction. Chef Elan breaks down how that tall profile adds knuckle clearance and control, while the thin grind and steel construction make it feel like a true workhorse on the board.

Shigeki Tanaka Kurouchi 165mm Bunka 🔥🔪

This 165mm Bunka from Shigeki Tanaka has a lot of thoughtful features packed into one knife.

Chef Elan highlights the Blue #2 carbon steel core, stainless cladding, kurouchi finish, hammer texture for improved food release, and a very comfortable Western-style handle. The profile is especially appealing, with a flatter section for push and pull cuts, enough curve for rock chopping, and a fine dropped tip that makes detail work feel precise and easy to control.

A great example of a bunka that feels versatile, capable, and easy to appreciate.
