French custom maker Guy Poggetti is working once again with Boker on a production piece. It’s called the Sanjo, and it should be a treat for anybody looking for something in the neo-Japanese style.
As you may have guessed based on that “neo-Japanese” descriptor, the Sanjo features a tanto-style blade. All told, it follows quite faithfully in the true Japanese tanto style, with a smooth, curving transition between the primary and secondary edges. This profile slots very easily into a daily cutting role, and, at 3.39 inches in length, it’s the right size for EDC, too. A front flipper deployment is not only fidget friendly, it helps keep the Sanjo’s closed position profile very svelte indeed.
Not my style, though I have been impressed with Boker’s offerings this year.
