Description

What makes this Japanese pocket knife special?

  • Higonokami – widely used traditional Japanese pocket knife.
  • Handmade in Miki, Japan a town with an old smith’s tradition.
  • This knife does not have a locking system, therefore the blade must be held up by the pressure of the user’s thumb on its lever.
  • Blade is made of  VG10 steel ~62HRC, this steel is high in carbon and not resistant to rust (for maintenance it is recommended to use steel maintenance products).
  • Stainless steel handle
  • Overall length: 170mm
  • Blade length: 70mm
  • Perfect as a gift as the knife comes in a Japanese calligraphy ornamented box.

NOTICE: Every knife blade may vary in size slightly due being handmade. These variations in no way affect the quality of a knife but rather add a touch of uniqueness.
