Discover a remarkable piece of WWII history with this authentic Higonokami knife, once possessed by a crew member of the Imperial Japanese Navy aircraft carrier Akagi. This knife isn't just a tool; it's a testament to the resilience and spirit of those who served.

Featuring:

  • "TRADE MARK" inscription alongside a crown and wings emblem.
  • "STAINLESS KNIFE" marked on one side of the blade.
  • Foldable design with a length of 80mm when closed and 130mm when open (measurements are approximate).
  • Visible signs of use, including blade warping, wear on the corkscrew, scratches, dents, and a smoothed blade, indicating its authentic battle-worn condition.
  • A unique ship pattern on another knife, though worn and difficult to distinguish.
  • Carefully cleaned to remove severe rust, preserving its history while restoring its dignity.

This set of Higonokami knives offers a direct link to Japan's naval heritage and the storied aircraft carrier Akagi. Acquired as a family heirloom with stories of service on the Akagi, these knives have been respectfully preserved, ready to be cherished by a new guardian of history.
