Hisshou Means “Certain Victory.” Shinbu Means “Divine Valor.” And Sakimori means…”Noble Defender.”These are the modern embodiment of the close-quarters battle sword of the Samurai.Veteran and current martial arts practitioner/instructor James Williams developed these fixed blade knife designs to meet user specific requests of coalition forces overseas for a more powerful tactical tool. These knives are deployed when the operator’s firearms cannot be used, as often happens in entry and search operations.These fixed blade knives are designed for multiple carry options (all come with a versatile Boltaron and/or Molded PVC sheath) to suit the operator.Each knife has its own advantages of size with their full-tang dual grind, high-carbon steel Tanto blades in a high satin finish. These are high performance blades that necessitate the need to keep the blade well maintained. We recommend you keep these blades (in particular) well oiled to be ready in the field at a moment’s notice.James followed centuries of Japanese tradition in designing these classic cord-wrapped handles, which compares well to more modern handle materials, giving excellent grip under all conditions. Sheaths are custom-fitted molded PVC with their own convertible belt-mounting system. Grip detents and flaired entry lips allow the knives to be resheathed securely with one hand. A belt clip can be attached, and there is also a quick-release retaining strap.The Hisshou, Shinbu and Sakimori knives command great respect, and are truly meant for today’s military professional.This model of the Sakimori is an updated version of the original 2913.Specifications:Blade Length: 5.76″ (146.3 mm)Edge: PlainSteel: O1 Tool Steel, 56-58 HRCBlade Finish: SatinBlade Thickness: 0.24″ (6.1 mm)Grind: FlatOpen Length: 10.5″ (266.7 mm)Weight: 9.1 ozHandle: Cord-Wrapped HandleStyle: Fixed Blade Knife with SheathSheath Material: BoltaronSheath Weight: 3.4 oz

Great IWB blade Wow, do I love this knife! I got it used on Amazon but it arrived looking brand new. It was razor sharp and all I’ve had to do is strop to keep it that way. I took the belt attachment off, added a ulticlip and carry it IWB with no problem. It pretty much disappears under a black t-shirt even with the thickish handle. The grip is very secure as long as you don’t relax but I am thinking about modifying it or getting another and customizing it. I’m thinking of knocking the handle off and adding…
You Want This Knife — Even if You Don’t Know it Yet I love everything about this knife, even though I have not used it to cut anything yet or even carried it on my person yet. Lets face it, this is a big knife. Too big to carry in most places being over 5.5″ in length. But it is beautiful to look at yet dangerous at the same time. It is designed to fight with, so I don’t really want to have an opportunity to use it for its intended purpose. It is heavy yet light at the same time. It floats in the hand. The balance is perfect. The…
Among my favorite knives This is a great knife. Mine came in great shape. For all the talk about a “fighting knife”, this has great utility. Mine has seen use around the yard, in the house, and a few other places as well. I don’t tend to get into knife fights, so I can’t speak to its performance in that setting as some do so confidently. I’ll leave that to people who are clearly very tough and menacing and definitely know all about knife fighting. For me, this is a great daily companion and camping knife, and…
