Geko Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 hey guys, was thinking about what to do with some left over´s and came up with this little fun project. i really like to use kiridashi´s in my shop for leather work. and if you are used to them you never wanna miss them. not a masterpiece, but for a first try i´m happy. not everything is perfect in line and the finish is bullshit too. but hey, its a working tool. have all a nice day, geko "Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent.

Alan Longmire Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Well, I like it, and I usually don't go for either friction folders, kydex, or kiridashi! It just looks to handy not to want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timothy Artymko Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I would agree with Alan, it certainly is a handy looking knife. I might actually make one like that just to throw in my dresscoat jacket I am always missing a knife when I wear it, and I don't want something that is noticeable, just a usable little piece. Great job, and A+ for creativity, I never would have looked to Kydex as a handle material! Timothy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geko Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 thank you all for the positive feedback. looks like i need to get some locktide now. the chicago screws starts to loosen a bit after 20-30 times open/close the knife. cheers, geko "Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent.

Kevin Colwell Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Well, I like friction folders (but not kydex, sort of like Alan). However, that looks like a great tool. Way prettier than most of my shop-made tools for my own use. Actually, it is prettier than all of them. kc please visit my website http://www.professorsforge.com/ “Years ago I recognized my kinship with all living things, and I made up my mind that I was not one bit better than the meanest on the earth.
