Custom Yokai – YK002

The Yokai has returned! Veteran Ironside Edge Works owners will recognise this unique and scary looking knife from past years, and with some slight tweaks to the design it is now available again.

The main feature of the Yokai is its distinctive short, curved, Hook-like blade which can be devastatingly effective on soft tissues. Whether it’s a forward grip slashing cut, or a reverse grip drag, it will cleave through tissue with ease. The single edge point is robust, while still being made from slightly thinner stock to keep the edge fine.

The Yokai has been updated mainly in the handle. The very ergonomic and neutral handle allows the user to hold the knife in a multitude of grips, forward or reverse, even reverse edge-in are all comfortable for the average hand-size. This makes it extremely versatile for those with an adaptive methodology.
