Hey Michael. The knife you're referring to is a Junglee Fukuta Hunter AUS-8 steel. made in Seki.. They make a smaller version also. I have both.. They are really quality. The orig. factory was in Seki but closed. Now they're made in Taiwan and perhaps China.. Don't have a one of those in my stuff. No way!!!!! I have it priced at $115 if it would ever make the shows.. The Seki knives are pretty hard to come by..
