This is very much a “love it or hate it” kind of knife. It’s a simple folder with a folded metal handle, non-locking blade and a simple extended tang to open it. The Higonokami style is a friction folder, with no lock, held open by the user’s hand acting on the tang.
This is a sparse, Nagao design – there’s nothing on this knife that’s surplus to requirements. The handle is a perfectly proportioned, single piece of folded steel, containing the blade, scalloped to accommodate the fingers when the blade is open. The blade pivots around a rivet, spaced with a pair of brass washers, simply etched with radiant lines. The blade itself is from Japanese high carbon steel which is known for its excellent ability to take and hold an edge, together with its reputation for being extremely difficult to forge successfully.
The knifemaker’s ability is evident in this pure and simple design. This version has a black-painted steel handle with a satin finish tanto-style blade.
