The KwaiDashi is my modern take on the traditional Japanese utility knife called a Kiridashi. The Kwai is added due to the upswept spine of the knife like the kw/kaiken blade. It's styled a little more forward, and is a bit more tactical making it more of a street scalpel. It is not a small knife by any means, it is full handled and the blade is under 3" long. A very capable and "pokey" knife. Comes with a kydex sheath.

Lckt707-these are all beauties man. Wish I had the greenbacks for any of them. Are they done on the side or is this yer main gig? Do you take orders, I guess is what I'm asking.
Thanks, Neal70
PS-those Kwaidashi are just wicked looking, but also very useable in a shop, or for cutting out prints, etc.

Many thanks! Also yes as of two years ago I am doing this full time as there are no other jobs in my small mountain county.
 
I tried to buy the the Tanto with the green swirl and the discount code said it doesn't apply.
Let me know what's up.
