Don't miss this discontinued item, similar to the Colt Serengeti skinner, featuring a 440 Stainless steel blade with deep guthook. A unique Japanese made knife and difficult to find today. A great addition to your collection! 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 knife is one of these rare finds. Knife only, no sheath.
