712 is a 1991 album by the Japanese rock trio Shonen Knife. The album was named after the contraction of the Japanese words for the numbers 7 (nana), 1 (ichi) and 2 (futatsu, technically an alternate reading than the preceding, literally meaning "two things"), which, when contracted, sound like "na-i-fu". Naifu is the imported word in Japanese for "knife" .
The Japanese re-issue of this CD does not include the song "Baggs" (co-written with members of L7), instead featuring a new song "Cooking Story".
