A poetic fusion of craftsmanship and nature — this handmade knife by Hidetoshi Nakayama embodies the essence of Japanese artistry, where metal, wood, and horn harmonize into a single expression of beauty.
The blade is forged from VG10 stainless steel (blade length: 43 mm), while the handle is meticulously carved from boxwood, resembling aged bark wrapped around a blooming deer antler flower. Every curve and texture captures a sense of natural vitality and quiet elegance.
From the lifelike veins of the leaves to the gentle polish of the petals, each detail reflects Nakayama’s signature philosophy — merging precision metalwork with the warmth of organic materials to create objects that breathe with life.
