Description from the seller
Higonokami Brass-Handle SK5 Knife – Original SK5 Japanese Knife – Made in Japan
Catawiki Category:
Collectors' Knives / Traditional Japanese Knives
Description:
Elegant traditional Japanese Higonokami knife, made in Japan following the historic artisanal tradition of renowned Nippon folders. This model features a refined construction with a brass handle and a high-hardness SK5 carbon steel blade (approximately HRC 60), valued for its excellent cutting ability and long edge retention.
The minimalist and functional design is typical of authentic Higonokami: manual opening via a rear lever (“chikiri”), slim profile, and essential lines that evoke the Japanese culture of the traditional utilitarian knife.
The brass handle is adorned with engravings in Japanese and a terminal hole for a cord, a practical and distinctive detail of everyday-use Japanese knives. The blade has a sleek, elegant geometry, ideal for both collecting and light-use.
Authentic Japanese-made item, highly sought after by enthusiasts of Eastern blade culture, EDC vintage-style, and Higonokami tradition.
