Fort Henry Custom Knives is proud to be a direct Dealer for Hiroaki Ohta custom knives


 Direct from the Maker from the New York Custom Knife Show 2012

   TI was Hiroaki’s first customer at the recent New York Show and I was immediately drawn to this unique slip joint.  This is a precision Gunstock pattern Slipjoint with gorgeous premium Sambar Stag handles.   

 

  It is hard to imagine the hours invested in creating such a one of a kind knife as this, all the parts are hand crafted and must fit together precisely and Hiroaki is known by collectors for accomplishing this on every knife.  

 Mirror Polished Stainless Bolsters with custom Crimping on the front, hand Rubbed High Satin finish on the Spear Point blade with a deep Custom Swedge.  

The Stag has been aged and has the appearance of an ol time pocket knife that has been treasured for decades.  

  The blade has a 3” extremely sharp Cutting edge, a firm half stop, silky smooth walk and talk and excellent spring tension.

Perfectly matched Stag handles. Precision all the way around! 

Hiroaki makes his own Leather Pocket Sheaths for every knife, well stitched and holds the knife securely.

A precise hand crafted tool that will appeal to anyone who enjoys a Traditional / Quality product.
