Hand-crafted using R2/SG2 high-speed powder steel, this Bunka is beautifully grinded with superb thinness behind-the-edge supported by the 62-63 HRC hardness. Being a guru of steel manipulation and expert on steel construction, Nigara Hamono created a unique Tsuchime pattern that is reminiscent of industrial steel beam, while the Kurouchi finish gives this knife a characterful accent. The fit and finish is superb for a Kurouchi knife, with a smoothly polished choil and refined Kasumi on the grind.

About Nigara Hamono 二唐刃物

With 350 years of history, starting from making swords for Tsugaru clan in the early Edo period, Nigara Hamono has passed down knowhow and skills for eight generations. Its 5th generation blacksmith Kunitoshi Nigara was a legendary sword maker, earning a long list of accolades, honorary titles and knighthood. The current (8th) generation blacksmith — Tsuyoshi Yoshizawa is supported by his father Toshiju Yoshizawa who has keen interests in art and music. Nigara’s famous Anmon design is the result of Toshiju’s love for Andy Warhol’s artworks. The family business’ expansion into construction steelworks has given Nigara unmatched access to in-house knowhow when it comes to advanced finishing. All these set Nigara apart as one of the most special knife makers in Japan.

Care:

Wash and dry with a soft sponge, and safely store after use. Avoid cutting into bones, frozen foods, hard fruit pits.

Cutting Surface:

Recommended cutting surface: wood, rubberized boards and high-end composites, and quality plastics such as polyethene make acceptable cutting surfaces, and will help protect and prolong knife’s edge. AVOID glass, metal, countertops, and other rigid, non-forgiving surfaces.

Sharpening:

We recommend sharpening all quality Japanese knives on whetstones, as we believe they yield the best results for your knives.

Luxurious feel
Color: Light Brown, Size: Throw (50" X 60")
This blanket is soft and fuzzy. It has a little weight to it so it’s great to snuggle up on the couch with. Double lined makes it feeling luxurious. Haven’t noticed any shedding yet I’ve had it for a month and have washed it a couple times.

amazinggg!!
Color: Light Brown, Size: Throw (50" X 60"), Color: Light Brown, Size: Throw (50" X 60")
i loveee this blanket. after opening and breaking the air seal i threw it in the dryer for 20 minutes to fluff it up and it's perfect. it's very thick and slightly weighted (3-5 lbs) and super duper stretchy. it's double sided so you can use it facing any way you want. i've never tried either brands but from everything i've seen, this is pretty much an exact duplicate to the lola brand and comfrt brand blankets. i do wish they made more size and color options but other than that i'm obsessed. (for size comparison reference, i have a queen bed!)

I absolutely love this Bedsure blanket! It is incredibly soft right out of the package and feels cozy without being too heavy. The fabric is plush and smooth, making it perfect for lounging on the couch, layering on the bed, or staying warm during chilly nights.
