Hand-crafted by our talented friend Nguyên in the Hanoi region of Vietnam, this unique time-piece features a striking blend of upper and lower Damascus—expertly revealed to highlight its layered 52100 carbon steel construction, with shimmering copper lines running through. Finished with a scuffed tsuchime texture, it’s got an old-soul feel with bold, modern energy.
This is a very limited edition run, with only 3 available, each piece is one of a kind. The Damascus patterns and finishes vary slightly from one to the next, making every unit truly individual—far from the uniformity of factory production.
Combine it with a custom-selected strap or display from Kakushin, and you’ve got something rare, personal, and built to stand out.
Kakushin can handle the blade-to-handle assembly for you at our shop. If you're new to the custom knife world and want to confirm the fit and sizing of a handle with a specific blade, feel free to reach out!
