The Kiridashi is the original Japanese utility knife. Traditionally carried in the sleeve pocket of one’s kimono by both Samurai and peasant alike. 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. Because of its innate practicality, it’s used for everything from whittling, carving, paring, and nearly every conceivable cutting chore.
