      Sadly it's discontinued but there is a very similar 4.5" blade called the Yukanto that was made by CRKT.
      I keep coming back to this video & am very tempted to grab a CRKT HZ6 as I've missed too many production knives that are now discontinued & ridiculously priced.
      I work as a Private Security Cobtractor & Exe university Protection so it will likely find a home on my vest.

    平造り (Hira-zukuri)... I never thought that our Japanese blade system is taken into the knife world. Hira-zukuri is high flat grind (Actually, it is not grinded but hammered) and good for piercing. We normally use this styled blade as 鎧通し (Yoroi - doshi) which is close to Misericordia in European nations. Is this knife in your video used for knife fighting?

    Nice knives. I thought they were called Hissatsu (sp).
    Pretty mean to show these to us when they are sold out!

    • @ericsierra-franco7802
      @ericsierra-franco7802 Год назад +1

      No. The Hissatsu is produced by CRKT and is designed by James Williams. Although "Hissatsu" does indeed refer to a specific type of classical Japanese blade design. But these Winkler made ones are all Hira Zukuri style tantos.

  • @harvestblades
    @harvestblades Год назад

    Winkler makes some great knives & this is one of my favorite designs though some of James' "esoteric" "martial" arts training makes me chuckle as I think of some of the silly Aikido & Dim Mak garbage that was so popular in the 80s & early 90s before we saw first hand what does & doesn't work in a mixed martial arts fight & combat.
    Good review but I may have missed you even once mentioning the steel used, HRC, weight, proportions other than 6"&9" & possibly even the cost/value. I have really considered the CRKT versions of these two for those of us on a more limited budget. Would really love both of those & while the 9" would be a fun kitchen knife it would be my choice for a duel, but the 6" is as long as I would want to carry on me for combat or self defense as often when you are justified or find out you need to deploy a knife for combatives you are likely entangled with your opponent. Thanks for sharing these deadly beauties!

      With a hammer grip or sabre grip your hand will not move forward on this handle. It has plenty of traction. In a reverse grip and pikal grip you place your thumb on the rear of the handle before stabbing anything and that will effectively prevent your hand from moving on it.
      Also, it is such a capable design for piercing....like a dagger....that it near effortlessly penetrates any materialistic you stab it in. Certainly human tissue is not going to be a problem for it and that is exactly the medium it's designed for.

    I have wanted a Williams/Winkler Hira Zukuri for years, and I have given up on ever getting one. These knives are so controlled/limited in their availability that they are pretty well impossible to get.
    That's not on Dan Winkler, though. Winkler knives are readily available through Winkler dealers. If you order directly from Winkler, the wait is 4-8 months, depending on which knife/axe you order. That is not the case for the Hira Zukuri knives, though.
    Sensei Williams, PLEASE: Make these knives available to all of us in an open edition, not limited edition!
