The Rockstead Higo II Titanium with DLC coating is where samurai heritage meets aerospace precision. Handcrafted in Osaka, its 90 mm YXR7 carbon steel blade boasts a mirror-polished DLC finish and a Rockwell hardness of ~65, delivering extraordinary edge retention and resilience. The blade’s honzukuri-inspired grind flows from 30° to 24°, optimized for both power and finesse. Each knife is meticulously hand-ground and buffed to perfection, resulting in a cutting instrument that can slice bamboo, rope, or paper with equal grace. Paired with a sculpted titanium handle, the Higo II feels like it was made for your hand, marrying strength with understated elegance.
Beyond its functional brilliance, the Higo II is a tactile work of art. The blade opens with a silk-smooth glide and locks with satisfying assurance, while wave-like grooves in the titanium evoke rippling water. Disassembly is intuitive, and Rockstead even offers lifetime sharpening—a rarity in the knife world. Whether carried into the field or displayed with reverence, the Higo II Ti DLC doesn’t just perform; it enchants. It is, simply put, poetry rendered in steel and Titanium.
