Description from the seller
Higonokami Brass-Handle SK5 Knife – 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 brass handle and a high-hardness SK5 carbon steel blade (about HRC 60), valued for its excellent cutting ability and long edge retention.
The minimalist, functional design is typical of authentic Higonokami: manual opening via rear lever (“chikiri”), a slim profile and essential lines that evoke the Japanese culture of the traditional utilitarian knife.
The brass handle is adorned with Japanese inscriptions and a lanyard hole, a practical and distinctive detail of everyday-use Japanese knives. The blade presents a sleek and elegant geometry, ideal for both collecting and light use.
Authentic Japanese-made item, highly sought after by enthusiasts of Eastern blade craft, vintage-style EDC, and the Higonokami tradition.
