Thanks! It was lovely seeing your collection and learning more about the knife.

Love the history. I really enjoyed this video. Thanks!

Just ordered one today. I'm so excited!

You mentioned the blades have a San-Mai cladding but the cladding style is actually Warikomi. San-Mai means the spine is still exposed, Warikomi means it's clad on the sides and spine. The 割込 on the blade actually means "Warikomi". The stamps on the blade can be used to identify them too: 本割込 - SK5 steel 青紙割込 - blue paper steel 白紙割込 - white paper steel

Just got one delivered, It's such a simple elegant design I ordered 3 more I'm hooked. I did spend the $40 for the jade version Ima hand these things out to friends

Those are amazing never seen those before. You are doing a great job. Also loved the history lesson. Keep up the good work

Thanks bro these are my some of my favourite knives bro fantastic vid these things are beautiful and can look a lot like otf knives and the speed they open

Great video! Thorough and knowledgeable. I appreciate it!

Great video on the history of the higo no kami. I bought several of them and your video really helped. The Katsu sold itself. I ordered one, expect it tomorrow. I'm going to order the smaller one. The bamboo style.

Thanks for the lesson. I just recently saw one of these and didn't know what to make of it. They do look like a work horse of a knife and easy to EDC.

I liked this video. It is cool to learn about the history of different knives. I would love to see more videos like this. Would also love to see one or two in the giveaway. Maybe an old style and a new modern style. Again loved this video and would love to see other ones like this.

I need one of these now. This is the first time I've ever even heard of these and I'm already in love with them.

Hey man really great video! Loved the history and seeing your collection. I just orderd classic one with the brass handle and blie steel, super stoked to get it!

Great review... love that blade style ... I've never really seen it ... and defenetly did not know the history .... thanx ! It kind of reminds me of the simplex we got back a few months ago from raven ... absolutely love that one and carried it for a while... moved on a month ago to the CRKT Tighe tac 2... I got that from a box also ... keep up the good work Doc!

I have a few and it has become my absolute favorite pocket knife! I used to change pocket knives every few weeks because I would just want to change or get tired of them. I’ve been carrying my higonokami everyday now for 3 years and use it like crazy. People always comment and it’s cool to have a rich history behind it. Cools vid thanks

I love these little knives. I collect Japanese knives from these to Rocksteads, with all points in between (Moki, Mcusta, Spyderco, Fallkniven etc.,etc.), but I value these just as much as the expense stuff. I think I’ve only four true Higonokamis, but I’ve many based around them, including some moderns. Thank you for sharing yours and your knowledge.

Cool in depth info on these blades. I am looking into buying one to harvest the culinary mushrooms I grow.

Yessss!! I would love to learn more about the different kinds of knifes!! (Opinel?😜 just a suggestion) I like your passion/enthusiasm about the Higo

The first one that you took is Higo 11, a Nagao Kanekoma Higonokami made by mr Nagao and it's actually a warikomi blue paper steel, not SK5. I have the exact same one and love it to death.

Hi, you seem to know a lot about the subject. Could you help me a bit? I bough two higonokami one was banshu hamono steel handle one, and one brass aogami. I worried though because I saw that Motosuke Nagao and other from the Kanekoma guild like to write their names in small kanji on the other side of the handle and neither one of mine has it. They both came in these yellow boxex. Is there maybe a site where I can get 100% genuine higonokami made by Motosuke himself or others from Kanekoma guild ?

Nice video. I was looking to learn more about this knife after my wife gave me one that she used as a child in Japan to sharpen her pencils. Sounded strange to me, but she told me all the school kids carried this knife as a standard school item. Anyway, I brought it home (from visiting her hometown) and decided to sharpen it up. I was amazed at the edge this thing is capable of. Shaving arm or facial hair is nothing to this blade. I tried it to carve wood and it went through it like butter. I have several specialty wood carving knives, but none of them cut as easily as this blade. Despite the 3mm blade width, it sinks deep into pine with very little pressure on the back of the blade. Initially, the friction of the blade to the handle was very loose, but I discovered that is easily resolved by just tapping the rivet with a hammer while the knife rests in concrete. Sounded sketchy, but I tried it and it worked great. I have no idea what kind of steel is in the blade on my knife, but I'd be interested in seeing how the different blades match up for wood carving. Would not recommend it for bone carving, though.

I’m so excited I just ordered an XL version I’m starting a knife collection today! I currently have the XL Higo and an Opinel No. 8 Carbone coming in from amazon! I plan on getting a Douk Douk next!

i just ordered my first Higonokami and i'm so hyped for it to show up, unlike other traditional styled knives you can pick up a quality one for pretty cheap. when it shows up it'll be competing against my buck open season 556 skinning knife for everyday carry i just don't know how well it holds an edge my buck dose a really good job at staying razor sharp even after a week. i really think i just like the feel and look of traditional knives.

I'm not sure what you use your EDC for, everybody's different, but this steel is a high carbon steel that will rust if left untreated. It is not a stainless steel. You can look up the differences between harnesses bcuz...Google. It is not sharpened by the blacksmiths (except for a rudimentary bevel) This knife is meant to have a super angled bevel (10°-12°?) That's up to you. Your Buck knife is made with softer steel and stainless. Remember that this is a cheap knife...but made with superior steel! Learn how to sharpen a Japanese knife, sharpen it(using the severe Japanese knife bevel) and your Buck (using the original bevel) then get yourself some hemp rope (1" X 10' minimum length?idk) And start cutting it! It will dull both knives and that's one official way to test how long an edge lasts! Cheers!!

IT'S FINALLY HERE!!!!!!!!!!

What that means is that these handmade knives are as finished as the blacksmiths take it, period. They're doing you a favor by grinding a rudimentary bevel on it (sort of) because from the shinogi line down to the edge can be refined by sanding the grind marks off, putting a respectable edge on it, polishing the center steel and/or if one chooses, as I do, to make the top steel,the kireha, to the shinogi line 'Cloudy' by Not refining that part and grinding to a high polish or the edge ( the center steel) just like the Japanese kitchen knives you can see a picture of. And then there is the friction of the pin, manually tightening or loosening depending on your choice. If the blade isn't centered, open halfway (90°) and twist, by hand only, the opposite way. It doesn't take much. The only brass I have that has a patina on it, are thing I don't care about. Shine that brass handle up with Brasso and the black crap coming off of it gets into the engraving making it black in contrast to the shiny brass! The rest of the knife I leave alone for respect to the blacksmiths! I hope this helps! Oh and btw remember it's a cheap knife for the people, like VWs used to be.

Not if you're using that knife, with your thumb on the lever that's pressing it down to the handle, there's no way that knife can close on your hand. I don't know anyone that's ever had a Higo closing on them. Injury. The friction folder is one of the oldest folding designs in history. From Asia, to Africa, to Europe, for over 500 years people have been using friction folders. People have used them for centuries without hurting themselves. Sometimes you just have to be a little smarter than the tools you're working with. Good safety skills, using the tool. Properly, and practice are learned skills that make all the difference. But even without those using the Higo with common sense and basic knife safety will prevent you from cutting yourself. This knife is very user friendly. Just try it out, and you'll see.

hi

Mate.. can you make it clear.. 1.Fakes come in plastic slips yeah? But origininals come in plastic slip in box as well. Are you say fakes have no box ? 2. I never ever hear of brass rusting. Brass dosent have iron to rust. You mean when brass oxidizes it changes colour on suface which is the patina not rust right ? Also friendly info for all reading, always go brass. Brass has a natural antibacterial and antimicrobial properties. It nearly impossible for any bacterium to survive or replicate on the surface of brass. Brass is just two steps behind silver as being best for this, whilst stainless steel is at the other end of being worse. Old charm brass handles through history for all applications had it right when it was handle by peoples hand. Cross decontamination through good quality brass is a very low risk...

Every Higonokami with a trademark stamp (as shown on your knives) is an authentic one made by Nagao Kanekoma manufacture.

Love this thin knife in my pocket! Too bad none of the knives have been sharpened to show what they CAN look like. With the grind lines sanded out and the hard steel sharpened and mirror polished! If these are put on a #1000 stone from the shinogi line down the kireha, one can create a 'cloud' on the softer steel and then shine the hagane(the carbon steel) and if you're good these can be 'Hair-Whittling' sharp!! That's what it means to customize your higonokami knive! It is disrespectful to add anything to the makers stamp! And remember that this is a cheap knife, with superior quality steel than your western counterparts. These knives get loose and tap tap on the pin tightens them up!

The center piece of steel is the good, hard steel sandwiched by softer steel (as to hold the harder steel in place, peeking out of the edge😊) There's tension trying to relax in the harder steel and the softer steel helps keep it straight!! Those Japanese blacksmiths got that down pat! Don't be confused with folding steel that's heated stretched and folded any number of times or cut/heat welded. Like the common 33 layer Damascus claim.

Lol a straight razor is hardly even comparable to a knife. They are designed totally different for totally different purposes. But yea it does look like that.

2009 Japan made carrying a pocket knife punishable by death.

Dude, you are either sadly ignorant or just trolling and teying to stir up some trouble. Either way don't post this kind of bogus crap on my channel. If you do actually think this bullshit it true, take 5 minutes to educate yourself before you pass on rediculous misinformation.

@@DocP91BI found this, just like the regulations here in Panama City " Pocket Knives Are Also Not Allowed. ... However, this is against the law inJapan, as pocket knives are regarded as weapons. According to the regulations, knives longer than 6cm are considered dangerous weapons. If you don't have a valid reason to carry edged tools, you might get fined under the Minor Offence Act"

Hey man, you should follow the real higo factory on Instagram or Facebook. You can get all of the legit info, as well as see thier catalog, on there website. It's just one maker, Mr. Mitsuo Nagao. As another commenter mentioned all 12 of the standard style knives in the line seem to be genuine "Nagao kanekoma factory" knives. His price range is anywhere from 8 dollars to 200-400 for damascus or custom! Great video!
