Spyderco Kazuyuki Sakurai Pochi C256TIP Folding Knife

Japanese knifemaker Kazuyuki Sakurai specializes in intricate, handmade folding knives, many of which are inspired by animal shapes. Some of his most popular designs are the dog-shaped knives in his "Pochi" (poh-chee) series, which takes its name from the most common Japanese dog name, roughly equivalent to "Spot." His first collaboration with Spyderco faithfully transforms this fresh design into a unique production folder with a hollow-ground CPM-S45VN stainless steel blade, a bead-blasted titanium handle, a Reeve Integral Lock (RIL), and a blue-anodized folding “tail,” titanium pocket clip, and pivot accent.
