Description
The ultimate line of knives produced by the experienced craftsman, Ichiro Hattori, with his “never compromise” character and craftsmanship.
"An Ultimate Masterpiece of Craftsmanship" - these are the only words that adequately describe Mr. Hattori’s remarkable collection of KD Series custom made knives.
Mr. Hattori is an uncompromising traditional craftsman and he utilizes all of his available energy, passion and expertise, to create his beautiful collection of Cowry X Damascus knives, which offer outstanding cutting performance and are made using ancient forging techniques and sword making techniques.
Each hand forged blade has a core layer of Cowry X and outer layers of Nickel-Stainless Damascus (SUS440 steel). Cowry X is a tough Powdered Metallurgy tool steel that was specially developed by Daido Steel Company for high-performance cutting tools. It contains a high volume of Carbon (3%) and Chromium (20%), some Molybdenum (1%) and a little Vanadium (0.3%).
Hattori KD30-華HANA (Cowry X Damascus Ultimate Edition, Cocobolo Wood Handle)
The first time I saw the top-tier KD30-華HANA knife from Hattori’s Cowry X Damascus Knife Collection was about 25 years ago. At that time, Hattori’s high-end knife collection was still not well known or well understood by customers in the knife market. However, my first encounter with a Hattori masterpiece, my first time seeing and feeling Hattori’s craftsmanship and quality, was an unforgettable, shining moment.
Master Hattori is now over 80 years old, but he still undertakes the important job of custom crafting the KD30-HANA’s Handle by himself. Hattori’s top of the line “KD30-華HANA” and “KD30-雅MIYABI” are extremely special to Mr. Hattori, he continues to create these supreme masterpieces using all of his pride, passion and experience. The Cocobolo Wood handle with Nickel Silver Guard is Perfectly Hand Contoured and has a Finger Groove that provides a very secure and positive grip, it is a well-considered overall design that is practical to use.
“Dynamic”, “Powerful” and “Sophisticated”, we cannot adequately express Hattori’s supreme masterpieces with these words. However, we can feel Hattori’s tremendous history, effort and spirit within this single knife from his collection.
The Masterpiece 5.3 Inch Cowry X Damascus blade will forever shine in our memory, the perfect combination is created when it is paired with the precise and comfortable grip of the beautiful Hattori Custom Handle.
Comes with a handcrafted Leather Sheath and Hattori’s Special Presentation Gift box for showcasing and storing this special memorial masterpiece.
