Bunka knife
Black Shadow Bunka 7 inch
2,400 EGP
A compact Japanese all rounder. The wide 7 inch blade chops and scoops vegetables fast, and the angled tip handles fine work like slicing onions and scoring.
Shorter than a chef knife, it feels quick and easy to control, which makes it a favourite for smaller boards and smaller hands.
- Japanese bunka shape: wide blade, angled tip
- Compact 7 inch blade, easy to control
- Black titanium plated blade on a black G10 handle
- Comes in the Sekeen gift box with a care card

One of one pattern
Layered Damascus steel means no two blades look the same. This one is yours alone.
Sharp from day one
Sharpened before it leaves us, so it cuts cleanly from your first onion.
Balanced in the hand
The weight sits where blade meets handle, so long prep feels lighter.
Ready to give

Care
Four habits keep it sharp for years
Damascus rewards a little care. These steps take less than a minute a day.
1
Wash by hand
Warm water and a little soap. Never the dishwasher.
2
Dry right away
Wipe the blade dry before you put it away.
3
Hone every week
A few strokes on the honing rod keep the edge straight.
Ocean Pearl Honing Rod · 1,800 EGP4
Sharpen every few months
When honing stops helping, use the whetstone or send it to us.

Can it go in the dishwasher?
No. Wash it by hand with warm water and a little soap, then dry it right away. The dishwasher dulls the edge and can damage the handle.
How often should I sharpen it?
Hone it every week with a few strokes on a honing rod. Sharpen it every few months, when honing stops helping, on a whetstone or with our resharpening service.
Can I use it on bones or frozen food?
No. Bones and frozen food can chip a fine edge. For bones and heavy meat work, use the Butcher Knife.
Can I send it as a gift?
Yes. Every order arrives in the Sekeen box with tissue and a care card, so no wrapping is needed. Add a gift note at checkout.
What if I want to return it?
If it arrives damaged or faulty, we replace or refund it free. An unused item in its sealed box can be returned within 14 days of delivery. Engraved knives cannot be returned unless faulty. Email info@sekeen.com to start.
