Hidetoshi Nakayama 

Fort Henry Custom Knives is proud to be a direct Dealer for Hidetoshi Nakayama

 Knifemaker Hidetoshi has been a netsuke artist for over 15 years. Netsuke are miniature sculptures that were invented in 17th-century Japan to serve a practical function (the two Japanese characters ne+tsuke mean “root” and “to attach”). Traditional Japanese garments—robes called Kimono had no pockets; however, men who wore them needed a place to store their personal belongings, such as pipes, tobacco, money, seals, or medicines.

Their solution was to place such objects in containers (called sagemono) hung by cords from the robes’ sashes. The containers may have been pouches or small woven baskets, but the most popular were beautifully crafted boxes which were held closed with sliding beads on cords. Whatever the form of the container, the fastener that secured the cord at the top of the sash was a carved, button-like toggle called a netsukeHidetoshi has taken his talent for carving in a fresh new direction – the Bolt Action Pen


Brand New / direct from Hidetoshi Nakayama 

This is the Medium version of the Bolt Action pen.  It is slimmer in profile and lighter in weight, also the tip stays extended and only the Pen tip is exposed during use. 

This unique Bolt Action Pen barrell is hand carved from one piece of  thick Antiqued and Textured stainless steel.  The top is completed with a lanyard loop.

 Hidetoshi painstakingling hand carves the interior Bolt mechanism. The ball point retracts and locks both in open and closed positions using the bolt-action mechanism.

Caran d’Ache of Switzerland, Giant Cartridge Goliath, 8428.000 Medium Black refills. It can be easily changed by unscrewing the front of the pen. 

Each Pen is Hand Signed on the Reverse Side to insure Authenticity and each pen comes with a Wooden Presentation box. 

 

I have seen the Large Stainless Pens sell for as much as $395 – don’t miss out on this one.
