Drawing on decades of martial arts expertise and experience teaching combat tactics to elite soldiers and law enforcement, James Williams created the HZ4.
This knife pays tribute to the hira-zukuri, a classical Japanese straight sword, while harnessing the powerful cutting capability of the longer HZ6 fixed blade, all in a more compact form with a blade length of 4.75 inches.
The Japanese-style tanto blade is crafted from robust SK-5 carbon steel and features a sleek black coating for discreet carry. The textured G10 handle ensures a firm grip, even in wet conditions or when wearing gloves. The versatile Kydex sheath offers different carry options thanks to its high-retention modular clip.
