The Story
The Higo knife you'll never lose, powder-coated in Knifewear red and laser-engraved with our logo! This is the real deal, authentic Medium 'Higo no Kami', only available from Nagao Kanekoma. The blade is crafted from Aogami #2 carbon steel for incredible edge retention and superior sharpness!
The “Higonokami Sada Kanekoma” or HIGO is a traditional Japanese pocket knife that dates back to 1894. Now being forged by fifth-generation blacksmith Mitsuo Nagao, the company decided to make the “short knife” a folding blade four generations ago, and thus the HIGO was born. They are crafted with steel from the Yasugi District thru a process called “the fire polishing”…how cool is that?
The Kanji on the blade translates to "Higo no Kami Sada Kanekoma".
