This is an Small, Elegant Gentleman’s fixed blade from Hiroaki with some of the best Stabilized Snakewood Handles I have seen in a long time.
Hiroaki chose some very beautiful Stabilized Snakewood for the handle scales that are well matched with Amazing Grain and color.
Black Micarta Pins add a dramatic look. This knife is a 3/4 Hidden Tang and has a Comfortable Full Grip, the handle fills the palm and there is room for all four Fingers for a sure grip.
The ATS 34 Steel blade has a Full Height Hollow Grind, a labor intensive Hand Rubbed / High Satin finish and an expert Heat Treat that leaves the blade at 61-62 Rc.
A perfect size for discreet and comfortable Belt Carry.
Hiroaki also makes his own thick, Hand Stitched Leather Sheaths, on this one he has added a new feature ~ a Full Kydex Lining.
The knife is a perfect fit and it “locks” into place due to the Kydex Liner, this knife will not even fall out if you turn the sheath upside down and shake it! Set up with a Hardened Steel Carabiner Clip allows the sheath to be clipped to any Belt Loop or Strap.
(NOTE: The picture below is of another knife, but it shows the exact same Style Color and Size of the Carabiner Clip).

This is the Actual Knife you will Receive.
If you long for an upscale / discreet EDC that will ride comfortably and be extremely comfortable to use then look no further.
You will not find a better value on a Personal sized Custom Fixed Blade!
