HIEN Knife – Precision Meets Power

When it comes to blending durability with elegance, the HIEN knife stands out. Its design is inspired by the acclaimed KM-285 Tornado, but with a wider spear-point blade for those who prefer a more versatile tool. This knife boasts a 7” slightly recurved OU-31 Hamaguri-ba blade, known for its sharpness and resilience. Whether you’re cutting, slicing, or carving, the blade’s long false edge provides additional utility and precision.

Built for Performance and Comfort

The 5” hand-contoured Black Canvas Micarta handle fits comfortably in your hand, designed with thumb notches and a finger-retaining paracord for a secure grip. Its ergonomic design ensures you have full control, even in demanding conditions. The HIEN’s 11-1/2” overall length delivers a balanced feel, giving you the perfect combination of power and control in every movement.

Superior Materials for Lasting Durability

The blade is made from OU-31 steel, 6.6mm thick and 175mm in length, offering an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. Weighing only 430g, it remains lightweight yet capable of withstanding tough tasks. The knife also includes a custom-fitted “SUNLOID KD” sheath made from SUMITOMO BAKELITE’s acrylic-PVC alloy, offering superior protection and long-lasting durability. You can even order a DOTS belt device separately for additional convenience.
