Description

Hattori produced this knife in the early 1970s for Kenward, the main exporter of knives from Seki which later became Kencrest. It features a hefty 5/32" thick x 3.25" long AUS-8 blade (back in those days they marked it 440Hi-Stainless for lack of knowing what to call it) and stainless guard with Rosewood handle and has a sturdy leather sheath (slightly shrunken from age). They were not produced for very long and many lay in the manufacturer's warehouse for years, with a few coming to the USA over the decades being exported from Japan in a conveniently sized Blackjack box which led many to believe that this was a Blackjack knife. This is the last of the Galloway, recently found in the original manufacturer warehouse.
