Mcusta VG-10 Friction Folding Knife

Based in Seki City, Japan, Mcusta combines Japanese tradition with modern materials. This slip joint folder leans more to the traditional side. With no locking mechanism and no pocket clip, it’s perfect for a breast pocket or a fifth pocket in a pair of pants—and it’ll make a great nightstand or desktop companion. The blade opens with the tang. Once it’s open, your thumb will prevent accidental closure. Featuring a VG-10 stainless steel blade that measures 3.25 inches long, it’s not small by any stretch of the word. However, at just 2.6 ounces, it’s super easy to take on the go. The wooden handle provides enough grip when you need it, and it comes in three different colorways depending on your preference. 

Since the mid-13th century, Seki City has been the cutlery hub of Japan. Thanks to its close proximity to rich sources of iron sand, charcoal, and water, it was a natural choice for skilled craftsman of old, and remains so today. MCUSTA, located in Seki City, blends traditional artistry with modern technology. Each of its knives is laser cut, CNC machined, and assembled and finished by hand to ensure the utmost quality.
