Higonokami Folding Knife

No locking device, no corkscrew, not even tweezers…just one wickedly sharp and sturdy blade that folds into an attractive brass handle. Starts off shiny but soon mellows to a lovely rich patina.

Why Blue Steel? The addition of a little chromium to the mix increases the “kirenaga” of the blade, which is to say it will stay sharp for longer.

Comes in a nice soft card box, with a heavy duty leather belt sheath as an option. A great stocking filler.

A general purpose pocket knife that’s easy to sharpen, easy to clean and great fun to use. For everything from opening letters and boxes to whittling.

• Quite a stiff action that loosens with time, and can be retightened with a sharp rap on the rivet with a hammer. • Try sharpening these with Shapton Whetstones - you’ll be amazed.
• The leather sheath is highly recommended to prevent the lever tip poking into you when you carry it in your pocket.
