This knife is almost identical to the Ichiro Hattori mfg. Sharp 1000s knife sold by k-mart in the late 70's but I cannot find out who this importer was. Logo: handmade with a star m inside it.

Re: who imported this Ichiro Hattori mfg. knife?
I don't know but back when the Hattori's were reasonable, I had an itch for one but never scratched it. I thought they were a cheap, second rate knife. Sure wish I had picked up one of those sub-hilt models. Can't afford 'em now.

I have found even the less expensive ones that were made by Hattori can really cut well and are extremely sharp.
Re: who imported this Ichiro Hattori mfg. knife?
thanks but Sharp brand knives imported the 1000s for sale to k-mart. This knife was imported by someone else. K-mart is a retailer, not an importer.
Re: who imported this Ichiro Hattori mfg. knife?
Thought I would post pictures of both knives in Excellent condition, the Sharp 1000S and the Handmade Star M mfg.by Ichiro Hattori. Still looking for the importer of the Handmade Star M.
