Mcusta Forge 'Shadow' VG-10 Damascus (MC-0114BD)

The Forge Series displays a combination of many traditional Japanese knifemaking techniques. From the damascus blade with hamon pattern to the Tsuchime hammered finish handle, this knife exemplifies Mcusta’s customary precision craftsmanship and contemporary design flair. The Forge is a stylish collection of historically inspired knives.

A fusion of precision and sophistication

Mcusta knives are products that combine precision and sophistication. The precision comes from using Japan's proud state-of-the-art machine tools, while the sophistication comes from learning from the handiwork of our predecessors, such as polishing. This fusion of techniques can be described as man-machine custom (precision machining). MCUSTA is a single word that embodies this man-machine custom. 

Also known as Gentlemen's folders, Mcusta pocket knives are some of our favourites. We are huge fans of them due to their simplicity and elegance. These knives feel just as at home in the outdoors as they do cutting the tip off a cigar.  

Made by Mcusta in Seki City, Japan.
