Hidetoshi Nakayama Large Syringe - Satin/Blade
This Syringe from Hidetoshi Nakayama mixes his signature style with the 'more than meets the eye' design he is known for, all with his legendary attention to detail and finish execution. The Syringe is a super unique and amazing piece patterened after old syringes but with a little extra bite. The blade features a slim and narrow, hand flat ground drop point profile, with brushed sating flats and a polished spine. The blade connects to the turned base, which acts as both the handle and interface with the sheath body. The captured end cap can be unscrewed to add a bit of extra length to the overall profile allowing the syringe to be effectively used as a push dagger that will serve as a compliance or defense device in a pinch.
