Higonokami Folding Knife - Brass - Petite

This petite mini-blade Higonokami knife is small enough to carry in your pocket or attach to a key ring. Perfect for small tasks in cooking, craft, camping, or foraging.

Since 1894, Japanese bladesmiths have hand-crafted this simple folding pocket knife for everyday use. While there were once 40 members in the guild making genuine Higonokami knives, today there is only one maker - Nagao Kanekoma - left still making these knives, in Miki City, Hyogo Prefecture. Considered to be Japan’s first ironware town.

They also make a perfectly suited and meaningful gift to a loved one or yourself.
