Paying tribute to the hira-zukuri, knifemaker James Williams has created the CRKT HZ6 Fixed Blade Knife. Hailing from the 8th century, the original hira-zukuri style blade was first popularized in daggers and utilized as a powerful "short" sword for survival and everyday use. Also, just like its origin, the HZ6 is purpose-built for real life warriors, only now designed to meet the demands of the modern world.
