Higonokami Pocket Knife Zenshin – Brass Edition: A Tribute to Japanese Katanas
The Higonokami knife, which emerged in late 19th century Japan, is a direct descendant of the craftsmanship once used to forge the legendary samurai katanas. Like the katana, this simple yet versatile tool embodies the essence of Japanese knife-making: precision, durability, and refined aesthetics. Initially popular among samurai and artisans for daily tasks after the abolition of sword-carrying, the Böker Plus Zenshin modernizes this heritage, combining traditional craftsmanship with contemporary functionality.

Heritage and Modernity: The Connection with Katanas
Just as the katana is crafted with carefully selected materials and attention to detail, the Böker Plus Zenshin preserves the spirit of the traditional Higonokami while incorporating modern elements. Its brass handle echoes the sturdy guard of katanas, providing both resilience and timeless charm. Over time, the brass develops a natural patina, much like how a katana becomes personalized through its use, making the Zenshin a unique reflection of its owner.

Performance Inspired by Samurai Swords
Equipped with a 440C stainless steel blade, the Zenshin offers excellent corrosion resistance and sharp cutting performance. Like a katana engineered for precision and longevity, this knife excels in everyday tasks such as opening packages, slicing fruit, and more. The slipjoint mechanism allows for smooth two-handed opening, providing a safe and secure user experience—much like the discipline and control required to wield a katana.

Minimalist Elegance and Practicality
With its elegant design and refined finish, the Böker Plus Zenshin stays true to the katana’s balance of elegance and practicality. Lightweight and compact, it fits easily into your pocket, ready to serve as a stylish and functional gentleman’s knife. The brass handle and stainless steel blade represent a perfect blend of tradition and innovation, making this knife both a practical tool and a collector’s piece for enthusiasts of Japanese craftsmanship.
