Pelle Saya Bunka/Santoku/Gyuto [knife sheath] - 195mm (7.7")

Hello Jeff,

Thank you for your order and for taking the time to write us a review.

You are correct—the leather saya (195 mm) does not fit the Yoshida ZDP-189 Bunka. For this knife, we recommend either the wooden saya (designed for the right side of the knife) or the medium plastic sleeve. The blade is simply too wide to fit properly into the leather saya.

When purchasing a saya for a knife you already own, we suggest checking the knife’s product page. All available saya options are listed there.

I will reach out to you privately with options on how to proceed with a return.

All the best,
Urban

Dear Christopher,

David here from SharpEdge.

All our sayas are universal for our Bunka knives. They may be a little snug at the beginning, but as with all leather, this one will stretch a bit and fit better over time. I recommend treating the leather with leather wax for better protection against dirt and to preserve the natural shape of the saya.

Best regards,
David
