Description

 Grand Master Hattori became 80 years old. In Japan, a person’s 80th birthday is commemorated with a special celebration called 傘寿 / Sanjyu. To celebrate his special anniversary year, and also his proud achievements as a Master craftsman, Hattori has decided to produce a Special Limited Edition Collection of knives called the 傘 San Series. 

The Hattori 傘 San Series knife collection will feature special, very limited production models, which Master Hattori can no longer produce in large quantites due to the rarity or limited availability of handle materials or blade materials.

This is the 57th version of Hattori "SAN" Limited edition" celebrating his 80th year old anniversary. He has selected Cowry X Damascus Special Classic Utility Hunter (KD30-3718), and used the selected part of Desert Ironwood for the custom combination handle.  The Black Ebonywood Ring makes impressive overall design with the golden color of solid brass hilt and Buttcap. This knife is produced only 1Pc with 傘SAN etching on the blade and Presentation box. 

Hattori SAN-57 Limited Cowry-X Damascus Special Utility Hunter is made of Hattori's exclusive Cowry-X Damascus, Cowry-X powdered tool steel core forge layered Nickel and Stainless Damascus steel, 4" Utility blade, 4" Hand rounded Desert Ironwood handle with Ebonywood Ring and solid Brass Hilt and Buttcap,  Hidden tang, Comes with Brown leather sheath, and Gift box with "Sanjyu 80 year anniversary message and gold label.
