Crafted in the scenic Hyogo Prefecture at the renowned Mujun workshop, this exquisite Japanese Higo pocket knife embodies traditional artistry and precision. The blade is forged from high-carbon Japanese white paper steel, encased in two layers of soft iron using the San Mai (three-layer) technique, ensuring exceptional sharpness and durability. The handle, made from polished brass, adds a touch of timeless elegance.
Each blade is meticulously handcrafted, with delicate hammer marks along the surface that highlight the care and tradition poured into its creation.
This knife is not just a cutting tool – it holds two hidden surprises:
• Dual Functionality: The end of the knife doubles as a bottle opener, blending practicality with subtle design.
• Artistic Design: When closed, the silhouette of the knife mirrors the iconic shape of Mt. Fuji as seen from the Miho Peninsula– a tribute to Japan’s natural beauty.
A great knife to daily have with you all times.
