japan Knife

This beautiful folding knife is an extremely sought-after accessory, whether used as a gentleman's knife or as a personal steak knife.

The Higonokami style of knives was the very first produced in Japan, in fact it could already be found in 1896, during the Meiji period. One of the main features of the traditional Higo Nokami design is the protruding opening pin when the blade is closed, which allows the blade to be opened smoothly even with one hand.

Shun's Higo Nokami not only includes the traditional opening pin, but also makes improvements to the original design by also going to incorporate a Liner Lock type blade locking system to make the user experience more secure. A modern, thin and sharp VG10 stainless steel was also chosen, making the Higo Nokami perfect for use as a personal steak knife. The Pakkawood handle is enhanced by a central inlaid mosaic pin.
