Description

 The ultimate line of knives by the experienced craftsman, Ichiro Hattori with his never compromise character and craftsmanship.

 In the final finishing work, Hattori gives special care to check every detail, blade grinding and polishing flows, warping, angles and handle shaping, fitting etc etc.... Every knife that does not meet with his strict quality standard, is returned to be reworked from the beginning or thrown away.

 His "Never Compromise" attitude to seek the finest workmanship has made him called as "World's Best Knife Craftsman". He was also honored to receive "Excellent Skilled Craftsman Award" from Seki Knife Industrial Association.  

 When you hold his knife in hand and actually use it, you will know and admit that he really deserve it.

Designed for battle and fighting, these knives have a slightly recurved, Hollow Ground 7" (Cutting Edge Length 180 mm) long blade, a fuller / 'blood groove' and a false edge on the spine. The false edge and distal taper result in a very sharp point. The blade is made of strong, heavy 0.20" (5.0 mm) thick AUS-8 Chrome-Molybdenum Vanadium stainless steel, hardened to HRc. 58-59. The exotic Cocobolo Wood full tang handle is hand contoured and rounded to fit your hand comfortably and securely. Comes fitted with a stylish Black Spacer and Solid Nickel Silver Hilt, Rivets and Lanyard Tube. Includes a custom, handcrafted brown Leather Sheath and a Special Limited Edition Hattori Box.
