MC-15 Folder Kuro-Take w/ Neck Strap - African Ebony Handle
Model #: MC-151

Since the 13th century, the city of Seki is the center of the Japanese cutlery industry. It is part of Japanese tradition to pass on the skills and techniques of the ancient sword smiths from generation to generation. Consequently, the specific knowledge was preserved over the centuries and constantly enhanced by modern technology. The knives of the brand Mcusta are manufactured in one of the leading knife manufacturers in Seki. They represent a synthesis of traditional Japanese craftsmanship and the latest cutting tool technology. All knives are made by hand at the highest level of quality. A fascinating lightweight pocket knife with a very unique design. Regarding its construction, this model appears to be a classic slip joint pocket knife, but it has only one handle side which carries the bamboo-shaped wooden scale as well as the integrated back spring. The largely dimensioned pocket clip on the back side covers the closed VG10 blade as well as the entire scale and thus ensures the safe carry of the knife with covered blade. Includes grooved nail nick and flexible lanyard hole.

MCUSTA Knives are true masterpieces combining traditional Japanese elements and craftsmanship with modern cutting-edge technology. MCUSTA knives feature VG-10 and 33 layer Nickel Damascus with VG-10 core blades and exotic handle materials.

MCUSTA knives are a synthesis of Japanese and Western design elements creating  a "user friendly" pocket knife that is beautiful, unique and functional. 

Unlike most mass production knives which are die stamped each component of MCUSTA knives is laser cut for the ultimate in precision and fit. Every knife is then hand assembled and hand finished by an experienced craftsman. This process creates a superior knife at a reasonable price.  MCUSTA stands for Machine Custom Knives!
