Greetings

After making some Higo no Kami friction folders I’ve come up with this new design and here are the 1st prototypes for sale. There are some very fine, skilled and talented makers here and I hope to reach their level.

I’m extremely happy with this design and I think it’s most comfortable in the hand.
I didn’t expect to sell them so there is no maker’s mark, but each will come with a signed certificate. I haven’t named it but a maker friend suggested calling this design “Toucan”

First is a stag model with stainless liners. 1095 blade with satin finish. I’m new to working with stag so the handle is a bit on this thick side, however it’s surprisingly comfortable and rounded in the hand.

OAL – 7 5/8
Blade – 3 ¼”
Handle 4 ¼”
This comes with a simple leather slip case
Asking price is $185

Second is the same in jigged bone with grey parkerized 1095 blade.

OAL – 7 5/8”
Blade – 3 ¼”
Handle 4 ¼”
Asking price is $185
This one can come with the pocket clip or with a simple leather slip case. I can take the clip off .

My knives are made to use and they have a thin hard edge. The other day a customer user texted me – “best thing about ya blades is they super sharp and stay sharp…”

Both handle materials were a gift courtesy of Mark Roe Knives (Idaho).
Paypal is most convenient and preferred.
Int’l customers welcome, shipping to be quoted.
