"712" is a 1991 album by Japanese rock trio Shonen Knife. The album was named after the contraction of the Japanese words for the numbers 7 ("nana"), 1 ("ichi"), 2 ("futatu"), which, when contracted, sound like "na-i-fu." Naifu is the imported word in Japanese for "knife."

It is worth noting that the Japanese reissue of this CD does not feature the song "Baggs" (co-written with members of L7), instead featuring a new song "Cooking Story".
