Finished these up yesterday and today. The first is a batch of 1095 kiridashis that are 1/8-inch thick and double flat-ground. They are about 5 inches overall with 2-inch cutting edges. All of them have little hamons, but I couldn't get them all in the pic:

Next up is a dashi with a Scorched Earth finish. 5 inches overall with a 2-inch cutting edge of 3/16th-thick 1095. I'm liking this finish. ;)

Last up is a "Dao-bit". It is 7 1/4-inches overall with about a 2 3/4-inch cutting edge of 3/16th 1095. Flat-ground with white rayskin and ring-hole a little over 1 inch.

Just finished this Chop Suey up later last night and shot some crappy pics this morning. It got some decent ashi lines, but I couldn't get them to show.

Not a kiridashi fan, but the other designs are quite interrsting :)

What is the material of the framelock?
 
Hi, Michael ! You don't take orders anymore ? I have emailed you a couple of times and gotten no response ! I had asked about your bamboo folder.
