Beautiful knife from JapanThis thing is a work of art honestly. The brass handle has a nice weight to it and the SK5 blade came razor sharp out of the box. I've been carrying it in my pocket for about 3 weeks now and it's developing a really cool patina. Shipping was super fast too, got it in like 3 days which I wasnt expecting.
Excellent blade sharpness right out of the box,Brass handle feels solid and looks great with age
Slip joint takes some getting used to if your used to locking knives
-
Traditional Japanese designThis is a beautiful knife that looks as good as it performs. The brass handle has an aged look that feels authentic and traditional, and the Japanese markings add to the charm. The SK5 carbon steel blade stays sharp and the slip-joint mechanism works smoothly every time.
Japanese craftsmanship

Neat little knifeJust like the larger Higonokami, it has authentic Japanese craftsmanship. Made of quality metals and very sharp.
It's tiny, you could stash it in a backpack, wallet or even your shoe and not know it's there. Handy way to keep a cutting tool in case you need it.
Its small size limits its use to small tasks.
