Kiridashi Craft Pocket Knife Japanese Blade Brass Handle with Sheath

Think of an American kraft knife like the Fiskars or Exacto. They have a cheap low quality but very sharp disposable blade, and have a long holder. What are you buying when you buy an American craft knife? You are buying a handle that can be re-used with cheap low quality blades.The Japanese craft knife (pennant knife) is the exact opposite of this. It is a high quality blade (also very sharp), that is very much able to be sharpened to keep it's edge, and very very little spent on the handle which is essentially folded brass.So my question is what do you prefer? a nicer handle with a cheap disposable blade? or a very good blade with a cheaper handle? Personally I much prefer a nicer blade as it makes the mudane tasks easier. I keep it around my desk as a "box cutter/package opener/utility knife". It has the added benefit of being super low profile (I've used it as a bookmark), So it's easily transportable to wherever you need it.

Awesome knife. I bought it to cut the wrap off pallets while working around my warehouse and it is hands down the most efficient knife I use. Super sharp. Amazing deal and cool look. It’s so slim I’m assuming I’m going to lose it sooner or later. :)

I really like this knife as it is thinnest knife you can possibly carry allowing for diverse concealed placement . Item is surprisingly durable and blade does not bend. It slices paper easily so it's sharp out of the box. Only complaint is that mine had a small dent or blemish in the brass. I asked Amazon to replace and I received exact same knife with exact same knick or dent same spot so it must be a bad batch. I kept it as is as it doesn't affect use and didn't want to do the return thing again.

Excellent

Compared to other Japanese style marking/utility knives this one has a thin blade 1mm and is not bimetallic nor hollow groundIt is a very sharp and nicely finished razor blade

This is a very handy little knife. It has a unique look to it. However, it is not EDC as the blade cover comes off too easily. The blade shape is surprisingly useful.

Awesome little knife,super sharpe very thin Im usuing mine as book mark. Bought two one for me, and one just as a random gift. Both was the same he liked his also. Highly recommend can't go wrong for the money. Would love to see other knifes the company makes.

Good blade but sheath too soft it bends easy
