Description

This is a vintage unmarked Parker model (identical to the Parker eagle stamped version we have for sale) folding liner lock pocket boot knife, made in Seki Japan by Tak Fukuta circa 1990. Blade is 440 stainless steel. 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.
