Strength and Elegance in Perfect Balance · Noduchi Form × Hamaguri Edge
The “Noduchi Hamaguri” is one of the signature masterpieces by Japanese knifemaker Kiku Matsuda — combining the bold, powerful silhouette of the Noduchi blade shape with the graceful Hamaguri (clam-shaped) convex edge.
Forged from premium OU-31 tool steel with a blade thickness of approximately 4.5mm, it offers outstanding cutting power, edge retention, and toughness.
The handle is crafted from layered G-10, providing exceptional grip and a visually striking texture.
It comes with a Boltaron 4332 sheath, known for its superior heat and abrasion resistance, ensuring reliability even in demanding outdoor conditions.
Each “Noduchi Hamaguri” is meticulously handcrafted by Matsuda himself, embodying the Japanese philosophy of strength, precision, and artistry in perfect harmony.
