The Slim Kiridashi with brass handle and saya is a compact, beautifully made little utility knife that is easy to carry and surprisingly useful. The SK5 carbon steel edge takes a very sharp edge and performs well for light cutting tasks, opening packages, trimming, and other everyday jobs where a small blade is all you need. The brass handle and matching sheath give it a distinctive look, and the brass sheet is secured by friction using a small dent made by the blacksmith on the side. A kanji stamp on the exterior sheath adds a nice traditional detail and reads “pennant knife.”

At just 20 grams, this kiridashi is incredibly light and slim, making it easy to slip into a pocket, pouch, or tool roll. Despite its small size, it feels purposeful and well made, with the kind of sharpness and practicality that makes it easy to reach for again and again. Customers especially like how compact, flat, and convenient it is for quick cutting tasks, and it also makes a fun and thoughtful gift.

Care Instructions: This knife uses carbon steel and should be kept clean and dry after use to prevent rust. Do not leave it wet or store it in the sheath while damp. Avoid cutting very hard materials or twisting the blade during use.

    This thing is tiny, but absolutely perfect for any little "I just need something sharp" tasks. It is dangerously sharp, and the cover is nicely compact, flat, and fits conveniently anywhere. I expect to be regularly gifting these to people.
