Sakimori translates to "Noble Defender" and this James Williams designed CRKT is the modern embodiment of the close-quarters battle sword of the Samurai. The full-tang dual grind, O1 steel Tanto blade has a high satin finish. Due to the high carbon content, the blade will require a film of oil. The handles are designed with classic cord-wrap with ray skin underlays, which compares well to more modern handle materials, giving excellent grip under all conditions. Sheaths are custom-fitted molded with their own convertible belt-mounting system. Grip detents and flaired entry lips allow the knives to be resheathed securely with one hand. A belt clip can be attached, and there is also a quick-release retaining strap.
