JCK Natures 青雲 Blue Clouds Series BCB-2 Blue Steel No.2 Nashiji Bunka (Kiritsuke) 190mm (7.4 inch)

Our “JCK Natures” house brand knives have proven to be some of JCK’s most popular knives. Each one of them has a unique appearance, fine characteristics and offers great value for money. Our JCK Natures Knives are a fusion of the craftsman’s special artistic techniques and the magnificent scenery of almighty nature.

At end of the year 2019, we released the first models in the “Blue Clouds” series: a TsuchimeHammered Kiritsuke Petty and Kiritsuke in AUS-10. Since then, our Blue Clouds knives have become one of our Bestsellers because of the their overall quality, excellent fit & finish, moderate price and stylish, practical design.

We have received many of positive comments about our Blue Clouds knives, including a special request to make a Carbon steel version of the Kiritsuke knives. Now, in the Spring of 2021, we are proud to introduce and finally release our newest Blue Clouds knives, which have Nashiji (“Pear skin”) textured, Blue Steel No.2 blades and a beautiful, wavy forge weld line.

The new “Blue Clouds Series” Blue Steel No.2 knives have a smooth Matt Blade Finish and Forged Nashiji texture — an innovative approach that produces very consistent and reliable results, especially when combined with the skilled hand work and finishing work performed by our smiths and craftsmen. The Mirror Polished, Blue No.2 Carbon Steel blade core is clad with low maintenance Stainless Steel and has a stylish, practical Kiritsuke blade shape (Similar to a multi-purpose Santoku or Bunka knife) that is well suited to a wide variety of cutting tasks. Heat treated to HRc. 61 to 62, the double bevel edged blade has a 50/50 symmetrical grind.

The Polished, Vivid Blue Pakka Wood Handle Scales beautifully match the Nashij textured, Blue Steel No.2 Kiritsuke blade. These knives also feature a full-tang construction, a forged stainless steel bolster and stainless steel handle rivets.

The combination of the stylish blade and attractive blue handle reminded me of a beautiful, expansive sky and clouds, hence the name “Blue Clouds” 青雲.

We especially recommend our “JCK Natures, Blue Clouds” knives to customers who are considering buying their first Japanese knife and want to own a moderately priced, high quality, practical, attractive and very fashionable knife. However, they are equally suitable for professionals and serious home cooks.

Das Bunka ist ein Allzweck-Küchenmesser, das früher ebenso beliebt war wie das Santoku, in den letzten Jahren aber seltener geworden ist. Mit seiner hohen Klinge eignet sich das Bunka-Messer besonders gut zum Schneiden von Gemüse oder Obst, und der dreieckige Spitzenbereich ist besonders nützlich für Detailarbeiten und das Schneiden von Fisch oder Fleisch.
