Top of the morning to you Jake, good to see a wee knife Wednesday. Looks like a decent little knife reminding (looks and size) me of the Sanrenmu 4112 half-stop slip joint.
yes, they are legal in Canada. BUT, CBSA is in the habit of sometimes stopping totally legal knives when we citizens buy them overseas. BUT, CBSA is most interested in flipper knives, not thumbstuds ones so the risk is super low.
Are you aware that Sanrenmu knives of this size are made primarily for the domestic Chinese market. Also the Chinese hate Japan and the feeling is mutual. So its highly unlikely that a Chinese company would try to sell their knives to their own people with Japanese characters on it. Also, are you aware that 2 of the character sets that Japanese use for the 3 different ways they have for writing are borrowed from Chinese characters, and the set that is purely Japanese isn't the one used on their logo?
2 fo the 3 Japanese "alphabets" (for lack of a better word) use the same characters as Chinese, and since it is a Chinese made knife and since the Chinese seriously dislike the Japanese ... Sorry to say you are wrong, but you are wrong.
I am no professional about either language, so I might be wrong but this is what my thinking is: I am aware that in Japan they have three different sets of what we would call alphabets, the main one uses Chinese characters as their base/origin (from the research I found). Also, since the company is Chinese and since China and Japan are not the best of friends it doesn't make much sense for them to use Japanese on a Chinese brand. That is why I think I was safe to say what I did about logo.
Those characters on the blade are not Chinese, it's "Pocket Samurai" in Japanese
LOL, of course, silly me for saying CHINESE. How out of my mind was I when I recorded that?? D'oh!!!
It's actually Pocket Sa lol
I’m just glad it’s not some terrible google translate text.
Super cute knive it be a best choice for gift .Like always great clip Jake

Yeah, it is a bit like the 4112, I didn't see that till I read your comment
i wonder if you can do light chiseling with the tanto? cant wait for the Brother knife review. thanks for sharing, Jake.
I would never have thought of trying to use it to chisel anything...
I’m finna cop the supreme one
DaggerR6 ayy
Wait there s a supreme one?
@@pazivefl yea I have it now
I think the Japanese characters say 'Bushido' which was the name of the Samurai code. The blade is like the katana /tanto blades.
Thanks Alex
Was thinking to take one of these apart to electroplate the steel but oh well :(
It's a cool idea anyway.
I'd like to see a 4 inch one
That would be NICE

It’s Japanese character... not Chinese ...

Broo those are Japanese characters but technically they based it of Chinese characters

Hmmmm good enough (jk) 😁
Top four are katakana, the phonetic alphabet for non Japanese words. The bottom is kanji, Chinese character.
