Comments: These are stunning lock-back folders by the excellent Japanese maker Shigeru Tozaki. The shapes are of his own design but have the feeling of vintage classics that have been updated. Shigeru calls the model with the Drop-point blade the Kevin LX, the larger of the two clip-points Gents LX and the small of the two clip-point Gents folder.
The fit and finish is superb, and the knives open and close like a dream. Shigeru does his own engraving, and was brought to our attention by noted Japanese slip-joint Master Ryuichi Kawamura. The bolsters are hand-tooled Nickel-silver, and each knife comes in a velcro case. Perfect for daily carry, these are some of the most beautifully made knives we've seen in a long while. Try one and see for yourself - you will not be disappointed!
