The Mcusta MCPV-003 is the Spring Edition of the Japanese Four Seasons Line. This model is from the Platinum Label series.

The Spring folder is 4-3/4" closed, 8-3/8" open length.  The .11"m thick, 3-5/8" long, Hollow ground, drop-point blade has a fine cutting edge, thumbhole, and is made of San Mai SPG2 Powder steel and features traditional hammer marks.  The Brass handle features a stunning inlaid Spring motif inspired from an important Edo Period (c. 1700) Japanese National Treasure art screen. It has a precious Japanese Persimmon wood Folding Fan inlaid with Blue stream lines running through it, and Sakura Cherry Blossom inlays representing Spring. The knife is a liner-lock design.  The liners feature delicate jimping all the way around.  Each knife is individually serial numbered on the bottom side of the blade tang.  It comes in a wooden presentation box with padded interior, paper, and a shelf display stand.

This is the latest Platinum Label custom limited edition knife, themed as the "Japanese Four Seasons". The Japanese National Treasure art screen shows floating folding fans in the water called "Oogi Nagashi" which was once graceful entertainment for aristocrats in medieval Japan.  This traditional event is still held every May at the Mifune festival in Kyoto.

Mcusta has intricately portrayed this scene on a brass handle with black coated trim representing a gold screen, and the folding fan in flowing stream is created by a patina finish (a bright bluish-green encrustation or patina formed on brass by atmospheric oxidation). It is a time-consuming process, and over time you will enjoy a color changes.

This Mcusta Platinum Label knife is limited to only 50 pieces per season with the serial number engraved on the blade heel.
