For many years, Dew Hara of Seki, Japan was a web developer and spent much of his childhood enthralled with Japanese anime. But his family’s knife-designing roots run deep and—following the footsteps of his world-famous father Koji Hara—Dew entered the world of knife design. Channeling his varied background, Dew dreamt up the Hirin™, a daring design that features perfectly balanced cutouts in the spear point blade and handle. This limited-edition design uses both Böhler M390 blade steel and two-tone 6AL4V titanium for the handle. A flipper starts the smooth action of the IKBS™ ball bearing pivot system around the detailed pivot point and a liner lock keeps it in place.
The Hirin™ hits the mark between Japanese perfection and otherworldly style.
