Available: a lonely little kiridashi-type utility knife, in titanium alloy 8mn, which I call "nuclear submarine titanium" for obvious reasons. The only element the titanium base metal is alloyed with is 8% manganese. An old, rare alloy.
This weightless little scrap of a blade is pretty sharp, but I bet a good stonesman can hone it into a veritable scalpel! Fun!
The blade will come furnished with a little leather pocket slip sheath, with a horizontal belt loop. If worn on a belt, you'll forget it's even there, until you need it. Can also just be dropped into a pocket, sock, or hat.
OAL is about 4.5" with a blade edge of just over 1.25", more or less a double flat grind (not chisel). Looks significantly better in person than in the pics.
The price on this bad boy is $SOLD shipped. Act now and it might arrive in time for Christmas, especially if the buyer pays a bit extra for that fancy highfalutin fast shipping!
