Description
This is a vintage folding knife made in Seki, Japan by Seizo Imai in the 1980s for Frost. It features a jigged bone handle and stainless steel blades. The blade has good snap and lockup, with some side to side wobble when locked open. Seizo Imai was one Seki, Japan's finest craftsmen and most famous knifemakers of the modern era. His collaboration with Parker spanned nearly two decades. He made knives for Parker, Frost, Browning, Explorer, Compass, Condor, and many others, including his own brands Imax and Seizo Imai. His custom Loveless style knives are works of art. After his passing, several vintage old stock models were found at his warehouse. This is one of these rare finds and is a difficult to find model.
