The Maxace YATAGARASU-II
This is the first fixed blade knife from Maxace and its well up to the usual Maxace high standards.
Yatagarasu (八咫烏) is a mythical three-legged crow in Japanese folklore, often depicted as a divine messenger and guide. The name translates to "eight-span crow," likely referring to its large size. In Shinto mythology, Yatagarasu is associated with guidance and is believed to have been sent by the sun goddess Amaterasu to guide Emperor Jimmu on his journey.
Several factors combine to make this knife special, including the Hitachi Magic-SLD San Mai blade, a sculpted G10 handle and its Kydex and Carbon fiber sheath.
The Yatagarasu-II can easily perform multiple roles from a medium size kitchen knife, to camp knife, hunting knife or a general utility knife. Its tough blade can be used for fine slicing or hard chopping. Beat it through wood and it wont let you down
Comes in a gift box with a Kydex and carbon fiber belt sheath and cleaning cloth.
