Vtg 1970s Hattori Kenward Galloway Seki Japan Fixed Blade Skinner Hunting Knife For Sale

Hattori produced this knife in the early 1970s for Kenward, the main exporter of knives from Seki which later became Kencrest. It features a hefty 5/32" thick x 3.25" long AUS-8 blade (back in those days they marked it 440Hi-Stainless for lack of knowing what to call it) and stainless guard with Rosewood handle. Comes with Black Leather Sheath (light handling wear and slight shrunken so knife fits tightly). The blade may have light staining spots but these will wipe off for the most part. They were not produced for very long and many lay in the manufacturer's warehouse for years, with a few coming to the USA over the decades being exported from Japan in a conveniently sized Blackjack box which led many to believe that this was a Blackjack knife. This is the last of the Galloway, recently found in the original manufacturer warehouse.
