  4. Kanetsune Shinobi KB-209 Knife – Japanese Handmade Fixed Blade Knife

    KNIFE RETRIEVED FROM A PRIVATE COLLECTION
    * Origin: Acquired from a private collector, previously purchased
    * Condition: As new, never used
    * Market availability: Hard to find

    * Handle marks: None
    * Box: Original

    * Inspected and Certified by our in-house laboratory

    There is a special charm in objects born where steel carries memory. The Kanetsune Shinobi KB-209 embodies the essential aesthetics of Japanese knife-making, recalling the heritage of traditional blades: a refined 15-layer Damascus blade with a Blue Steel (Aogami) core, a handle inspired by traditional Japanese sword mountings featuring samegawa (ray/shark skin) with black cord wrapping, and an elegant Japanese-style wooden sheath. This fixed blade knife offers strong visual impact and is designed for light outdoor use, distinctive EDC carry, or as a collectible piece, combining presence, control, and time-honored materials.

    Intended use: Fixed blade knife for EDC, light outdoor activities, tactical use, and collecting.
    Production type: High-quality semi-handcrafted production inspired by Japanese tradition.
    Country of manufacture: Japan (Seki).
    Blade: Blue Steel (Aogami) with 15-layer Damascus cladding.
    Blade finish: Visible traditional Damascus pattern.
    Handle: Oak wood handle wrapped in samegawa (ray/shark skin) with black cord.
    Blade length: 135 mm.
    Blade thickness: 4 mm.
    Total length: 260 mm.
    Weight: Approx. 162 g (knife only).
    Packaging: Knife supplied with Japanese-style wooden sheath.
    Notes: KB-209 model from the Shinobi series; often listed as discontinued or difficult to source by various retailers.

    A brief history of the brand
    Kanetsune is a brand of Kitasho Co., Ltd., based in Seki, a Japanese city historically known as the “City of Cutlery.” The company officially dates back to 1964, with family roots in knife manufacturing and trade going back to the 1930s. The name Kanetsune is traditionally associated with a renowned master bladesmith of the Muromachi period, underlining its strong connection to Japanese forging heritage.

    Use and maintenance advice
    The Blue Steel Damascus blade requires care: after use, it is recommended to wash by hand, dry immediately, and apply a light protective oil layer during storage or use in humid environments. Avoid dishwashers and prolonged contact with water or aggressive substances. The samegawa provides a natural, secure grip, enhancing handle stability even with wet hands.

    Why choose this knife
    The Kanetsune Shinobi KB-209 is not just a knife, but an object with a strong identity: 15-layer Damascus Blue Steel for a distinctive cutting edge, a traditional handle with samegawa and cord for control and authenticity, and a Japanese-style wooden sheath for elegant presentation. An ideal choice for enthusiasts seeking a fixed blade with true Japanese character, beyond common Western designs.
