Looking a Kiridashi

[JSMcustoms]

I'm looking a kiridashi to add to my collection/EDC rotation. But the problem is I can't seem to find very many on my web searches, nor am I versed in some of the steels I see listed (Blue Paper etc). Can someone offer some recommendations/insight?

Daniel Fairly makes excellent ones, 51200 or 5160 is what he used to use.

Check out Stonewood custom knives, they are a bit expensive but his designs and quality are very nice.

I'll give them both a look and see what I find.

I still have 3 made from cpm D2. Nice cord wrap and black oxide finish...

Daniel fairly makes nice ones as does a poster here that goes by flatblackcapo.
