Product Description

The HZ6 by knifemaker James Williams pays tribute to the classical Japanese straight sword, known as hira-zukuri. With its origins dating back to the 8th century, this style of blade was originally used in daggers and served as a versatile "short" sword for survival and everyday use. Now, the HZ6 brings this traditional design into the modern world, catering to real-life warriors with its purpose-built construction.

Crafted with precision, this tactical fixed blade features a substantial 6.5" trailing point blade made from SK-5 carbon steel, a material prized for its extreme toughness and ability to withstand high-impact use. The black powder coating ensures superior corrosion resistance and a low-profile, non-reflective finish. The ergonomics are anchored by CNC-machined black G-10 handle scales, providing a high-traction, weather-resistant grip that remains secure in high-stress situations. The full-tang construction provides the structural integrity required for a professional-grade defensive or survival tool.
