The [Higonokami](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allday-goods-x-outsiders-store-knife) Pocket Knife Mame from Hand-Eye Supply is made from the traditional Japanese Higonokami method, making the knife super small and super sharp. The hand-forged blade was made in the same way as the swords of the former Samurai soldiers, but with a pocket quality that was popular in the country in the 20th century. The 1.5 inch white steel blade fits into a brass sheet. The foldable knife has a punched hole to hang on the black leather string, but could also be attached to keys, a lanyard or a cellphone as a charm. This personal accessory is ideal for opening boxes, mail or fruit. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.8/10 - Popularity: 88% | Activity: 77% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/jewelry) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Wearable-weapon Accessories:** Functional accessories that combine fashion and weapons to create wearable defense mechanisms. - **Traditional Techniques for Modern Items:** Using ancient methods and techniques to create modern items with added value. - **Pocket-sized Samurai Tools:** Creating smaller versions of traditional Samurai tools that are easily accessible and portable. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion Accessories:** Combining fashion and self-defense to create innovative accessories. - **Knife and Blade Manufacturing:** Using traditional techniques to create high-quality, functional blades for everyday use. - **Japanese Culture and Tradition:** Incorporating traditional Japanese methods and designs into modern products for added cultural value. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Micro Keychain EDC Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tinyblade.md) - [Poshly Designed Pocket Knives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wesn-x-pco-slipjoint-microblade-knife.md) - [Wallet-Ready Pocket Knives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bison-gears-kiridashi-pocket-knife.md) - [Landscape-Honoring Pocket Knives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wesn-ridgeback-microblade.md) - [Portable Miniature Pocket Knives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cuttix.md) - [Titanium EDC Knives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mih-bladenex.md) - [Micro-Sized Titanium Pocket Knives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tigo-nanomax.md) - [Micro-Sized EDC Knives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/microblade-pill-xl.md) - [Featherlight EDC Pocket Knives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/b2-nano-blade.md)
