Rockstead SHIN-ZDP 3.54" Polished ZDP189/VG10 Folding Knife

Rockstead factory custom knives (Sakai, Japan) are known to be among the finest in the world https://www.rockstead.jp/making

This blade is convex on both sides in the tradition of the highly praised Japanese sword. This shape is both sharp and strong, and can still slice cleanly through a sheet of paper even after 1,000 cuts through a hemp rope. Using this special blade shape is an excellent way of allowing an edge to be thick without sacrificing any of its sharpness. This knife is of preeminent sharpness. This is a durable knife with strong cutting capabilities that will last for a long time. Even when used for rigorous cutting, the blade will not bite or catch thanks to its convex shape. Other knives will often bite or catch, and may acquire nicks if pulled out suddenly. This knife will scratch into a china plate so please do not use it to cut food on the plate.  Made in Sakai, Japan.

信"SHIN" in Japanese means "trust".
