Product Description
When you want a sword but need an EDC.
The Raikiri everyday carry folding knife has a serious namesake in the world of modern Japanese lore…the legendary sword is said to have sliced a bolt of lightning in two. Even if that particular need doesn’t arise, the carefully designed curves, shapely lines, and innovative Field Strip technology will make each job conquered feel just a bit more heroic.
From his hometown of Seki, Japan, Dew Hara has learned from the best—his father, Koji Hara, is one of the most respected designers in the world. Though Dew is relatively new to knife design, he’s making a serious name for himself. The Raikiri everyday carry knife is built with a modified wharncliffe blade that features a satin finish and a low-profile flipper. Once open, the locking liner anchors it in place between two cold-forged handles. With a sharply contrasting line, the movement in the design nods at the slashing motion of the famous sword Iaido, which has been a strong influence over Dew’s inspiration. To elevate the utility of the knife to match its aesthetic, he’s given it Field Strip technology for simple cleaning and maintenance in the field without tools.
Every hometown superhero needs a sword. This one will simply fit in your pocket.
How Field Strip Works
Field Strip Technology lets you easily disassemble your knife for cleaning without tools. To disassemble, close the knife, push the front release lever up. Then spin the rear release wheel clockwise —once you feel the handle release, pull it up and away. Handles and blade come apart easily. To bring the knife back together, place the blade and handles into the closed position - press and hold the pivot. Once the pivot is seated correctly, rotate the release wheel counter-clockwise until snug. Push front lever down. The knife is restored to full working order.

Sturdy components
Quite decent blade (both the material and the straight edge makes sharpening exceptionally easy)
Comfortable single-handed use with either hand
Even the cost (for the quality) isn't bad!
Sadly, I lost my first one, so I'm ordering another.
Hopefully, it just got lost somewhere in the mess I call a garage, but even if I find it I'll be more than happy to have a second.
Honestly, I'm surprised it took me 7 months to lose it. Usually when I lose things though, I find themm within a day or two.
Unfortunately, it's been lost for more than 2 weeks and it could be a long time before I find it so a replacement is necessary in the meantime.
Love the satin finish, razor sharp!
Some say the steel might rust , don't know much about the steel,
Large blade but fits nice in the hand
Fits in the pocket great and easy to pull out
May never need to field strip it , but love the option.
However..
This is my first field strip knife and i am impressed by the design so that is why i give 3 stars.
This knife will just end up collecting dust in my collection. Definitely not a work knife.
