It originated in the Hyogo prefecture, specifically in the town of Miki, which was renowned for its blacksmithing tradition. The name \"Higonokami\" is a tribute to the Higo province, where the knife first gained popularity, and \"kami,\" which means \"god\" or \"protector.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the Meiji period (1868-1912), these folding pocket knives became synonymous with Japanese craftsmanship.
