Description

This stout triple blade folding hunter was made by Tak Fukuta in Seki, Japan circa 1980s-90s. This is a handful with a nice larger sized handle and three nice blades packed inside. Tak Fukuta was the first Japanese member of the American Knife Maker's Guild, and apprentice to Bob Loveless. He hand crafted fine quality knives that impressed his mentor. Over the years, his factory in Seki, Japan also produced knives for Parker, Valor, Gutmann, Explorer, Frost, and Browning among others. After his passing, several vintage old stock models were found at his warehouse. This is one of these rare finds.
