It's impossible to overstate the beauty of the "Troll Killer" from Nigara Hamono, they're extremely limited and every single knife is a one-of-a-kind collectors piece.
Hand forged damascus using an incredible 250 layers of steel and paired with a classic octagonal wa handle made from ebony and finished with nickel rings and white buffalo bolster and heel this is without question, one of the most spectacular knives we've had the honour and pleasure to sell.
This knife is a one of a kind due to the different patterns and finishes in the Anmon range so the photos and video here are for this exact knife.
