Tokusen-Tasoukou knife blade is made from Aogami Blue Steel, which hides into the black chrome plated brass handle. The hand forged blade is thick (around 4 mm) and super sturdy.

The blade opens by Chikiri lever and stays open with friction, withouth a separate locking mechanism. When the knife is brand new, the blade can be a bit tight but will loosen up over time. If it gets too loose, it can be tightened by hammering the pivot - a great feature of the Higonokami knife.

Comes in a wooden box.
