Cold Steel Master Tanto VG-1 San Mai ... Mcusta Japanese Bushi Sword
Really liking these Mcustas ... smooooth action! Thanks again Gary!

Wish I knew for sure who made these. I always thought they felt and looked like Moki made them but AG used G Sakai and some others in Japan for knives. I have found some knives made by Masters Imai, Fukuta and Hattori. So he used a lot of makers in Japan and they aren’t telling who made what, which is sad. This info should be shared now why it can be found. In a few years it will be impossible for anyone to figure out.chickenman62 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 03, 2025 9:57 pm Thanks Mark. Who made these A.G. Russel knives? This one more than any others I have has a real Moki feel about it.

Congrats Tony on completing your collection of these Master Hattori knives. They all have the elegance of his knives and that special quality that is hard to put into words. You know it’s an Hattori when you handle his knives and I can see that quality in the photos. I’m sure these feel like an Hattori in hand. What a great looking collection.Corn Creek Cutlery wrote: ↑Fri May 09, 2025 10:43 pm Hattori Browning Traditional Folding Hunting Knives Set
