This handcrafted knife by swordsmith Hiromune Takaba measures 250mm in overall length and features a traditional cord-wrapped handle.
The bold damascus pattern flows dynamically across the blade, highlighting the depth and character unique to forged steel.
The red cord wrapping adds a striking visual accent, giving the piece a distinct presence reminiscent of traditional Japanese weapon aesthetics.
With its substantial 6mm spine thickness, this knife carries impressive weight and form, making it not only functional but also highly collectible as an artisan-made work.
