KANSEI MATSUNO

 Fort Henry Custom Knives is proud to be a direct Dealer for Kansei Matsuno custom knives


~ Direct from the Maker ~

This is the LAST of this Material ~ Kansei can no longer obtain it in Japan!  

 This is a Full Size Hand Made Gentleman’s Friction Folder in a Very Unique Handle Material

Friction Folder is the oldest of folding knife designs, ancient Viking Age Friction Folders (or Penny Knives as they were called ) have recently been discovered in Rome where they were a standard item for men of wealth and privilege!

This example by Kansei has a very smooth action, the blade has no play in any direction and the Full Grip handle fits in the palm very comfortably. 

The D2 Blade was Hand Ground and then Kansei gave it a Labor Intensive Hand Rubbed Finish. 

The Polished Titanium Frame and Backspacer give this knife a Sturdy yet Lightweight feel.  

When opened,the extended Tang used to open the Blade rests inside the handle with the Thumb Ridges rising just above it.   

The overall build is very strong without being too heavy and will especially appeal to those where a Locking Knife is frowned upon.

NOTE: This knife also has a Secret, when exposed to Light the Shred Carbon Fiber GLOWS In The Dark!

This is the LAST of this Material ~ Kansei can no longer obtain it in Japan! 

A wonderful knife that will appeal to anyone who enjoys a Traditional / Quality product.   

  Leather Pocket Sheath is included – well stitched and holds the knife securely.
