Cold Steel

The Kiridashi is the original Japanese utility knife. The Kiridashi is now used by practically everyone in Japan from children to master craftsmen. In many ways it's the fixed blade equivalent of the western pocket knife. It's used for everything from whittling, carving, paring and nearly every conceivable cutting chore. Our Kiridashi folder offers a razor sharp classically shaped blade made from 4034SS stainless steel that's mated to a comfortable Griv-Ex grip that will never rot, crack, warp or mildew. To guard your fingers, it comes with our Tri-Ad Locking mechanism.
