Here’s what makes ONAMI special:

• Fun & Fidgety button-lock  - Similar to our SHOZEN knife axis-lock but simpler. Just push the button to release the lock and flick your wrist to fully open and close the blade (this is not a spring-assisted automatic knife). It’s fun to play with (admit it, we all love that satisfying click), and it locks up solid for safe carry. Super easy one-handed open and closing.
• Full titanium handles and liner - Grade 5 titanium, machined for that perfect feel. Lightweight, bulletproof, and they look awesome. Choose from a lightly gritty sandblasted finish or grippy Seigaiha motif.
• Standard utility blades - Takes any common replacement utility blade you can grab at the local hardware store. Swap ‘em out tool-free whenever you need a fresh edge.
• Wire pocket clip + lanyard hole - Wire clips are smooth, round, and doesn't damage your pant pocket like other pocket clips. ONAMI stays tucked in your pocket and disappears until you need it. Add a paracord pull on the keyhole for a more customized look. The pocket clip is removable which makes for a cleaner pocket-drop carry.
• Ball Bearings - Traditional friction washers are great but for ONAMI we are using ball bearing washers for better performance: reduced friction for lightning-fast, buttery-smooth deployment and closing; effortless fidget-friendly action with minimal effort; more consistent centering and zero blade play when properly tuned.

Available in two styles:

• Seigaiha Edition -This one has the classic Japanese wave pattern (Seigaiha) on the handles. It’s that timeless ocean wave design that means peace, good luck, and endless resilience. It turns the knife into something a little more special, almost like a tiny piece of art.
• Sandblasted Edition - Clean, no-frills matte finish with a grippy texture. Simple, understated, and just looks sharp.
