Description from the seller

Higonokami Knife with Darkened Steel Handle SK5 – Original SK5 Japanese Knife – Made in Japan

Category Catawiki:
Collectible knives / Traditional Japanese knives

Description:
Elegant traditional Japanese Higonokami knife, made in Japan according to the historic artisanal tradition of the famous Nippon folders. This model features a refined construction with a darkened steel handle and a blade in high-hardness carbon steel SK5 (about HRC 60), prized for its excellent cutting ability and long edge retention.

The minimalist, functional design is typical of authentic Higonokami: manual opening via rear lever (“chikiri”), slim profile and essential lines that recall the Japanese culture of the traditional utilitarian knife.

The darkened steel handle is adorned with inscriptions in Japanese and a lanyard hole at the butt, a practical and characteristic detail of everyday-use Japanese knives. The blade presents a sleek and elegant geometry, ideal for both collection and light use.

Authentic Japanese-made item, highly sought after by enthusiasts of Eastern cutlery, vintage-style EDC, and the Higonokami tradition.
