Hissatsu PR

practitioner/instructor with over 49 years of experience. He knows cutlery as President of

Bugei Trading Company, producer of fine Samurai swords. As one who has trained

tactical law enforcement and military forces for the SureFire Institute, he has developed a

unique and powerful approach to unarmed combatives. His system of defensive tactics,

known as The System of Tactical Strategy, has its origins in the ancient Samurai military

systems as well as the Russian military art of Systema.

A key part of this system is the Columbia River Knife & Tool® (CRKT) ® Hissatsu

based on an old Japanese design. The unique shape of the blade, made famous by the

legendary Samurai warlord Takeda Shingen, provides enormous penetrating power and

superior slashing capability in one blade, which works with the natural motion of the

body. James arrived at this modern version as a backup weapon for close-quarters

combat. This is a focused single-purpose knife for use in anti-terrorist/close-quarters

battle (CQB) environments, either as a primary or a secondary weapon to augment the

handgun in the hands of trained professionals.

The Hissatsu’s dual grind Tanto blade is 440A stainless steel, high satin finished. For

those who prefer a nonreflective finish, the Hissatsu is available with a black EDP blade

or in Desert Tan dress with titanium nitride blade coating.

To aid in law enforcement and military training, a Hissatsu Trainer is now available

with a blue handle and aluminum blade with a rounded trainer edge.

The handle is in a traditional Japanese pattern, but is Twin-Fused™, double injection-

molded with a high-impact polypropylene core, butt and hilt, and a non-slip Kraton®

handle surface. Oyatsubo, the emperor node on the omote (outside/public side) of the

tuska (handle), allows you to know which direction the blade is facing, even in

compromised lighting conditions, by touch.

The custom injection-molded Zytel® sheaths (in matching black, Desert Tan or blue)

grip the knife firmly, and have removable belt clips which can be attached high or low,

vertical or horizontal with the black two-piece screws provided. There are also holes and

slots for carry on belts, webbing or equipment.

The Hissatsu is intended for use only by trained law enforcement and military tactical

team professionals. Enormous power in a light, flat package makes for easy carry with

many options for placement on tactical gear.
