The HIZEN-TIN is a smaller version of our HIGO knife. This knife is very tough as a result of it's titanium coating. This is an easy maintenance knife that is very easy-to-use and cuts well. The handle is made from duralumin, which is light and strong.
This knife has a blade angle of 30 degrees near the haft, and 24 degrees near the tip with one continuous, gradually reducing angle connecting them. This reducing blade angle is a product of Rockstead's continuing pursuit of superior sharpness.
This knife is of preeminent sharpness. This is a durable knife with strong cutting capabilities that will last for a long time.
肥前"HIZEN" in Japanese means "the old name of the "kyushu" district in Japan.
This blade coating was changed from TIN to DLC.
