Niwaki Blue Steel Higonokami Folding Knife
Niwaki Blue Steel Higonokami Folding Knife
Niwaki Blue Steel Higonokami Folding Knife—a classic Japanese pocket knife crafted by Kanekoma. Boasting a brass handle and a meticulously hand-forged 3-inch folded Hitachi Aogami Blue Steel blade, this knife embodies traditional craftsmanship.
Eschewing modern extras like a locking device or corkscrew, it stays true to its authentic design. Ideal for those who appreciate simplicity and functionality, this folding knife makes for a unique stocking filler.
The brass handle evolves from a shiny start to a rich patina over time, adding character to its aesthetic. While initially exhibiting a firm action, it gradually eases with use and can be adjusted by a sharp rap on the rivet with a hammer. For sharpening, the use of Shapton Whetstones is recommended, promising a remarkable outcome. The knife is elegantly presented in a soft card box, completing its thoughtful design.
