Hand-forged Kiridashi marking knife with 4 cm blade and leather sheath by Sharky Forged Steel Tools

Quiet accuracy

A compact kiridashi that slips from its leather sheath and lands where the line needs to be—clean, deliberate, certain.

At the workbench

A line you can trust

Forged character

Patterns drift when the blade hesitates. The Marking Knife Kiridashi with 4 cm blade holds a true course, balancing comfortably in hand so cuts and scribe lines start and finish exactly where they should. Its 52100 high‑carbon edge stays keen through long sessions, reducing stops and second passes.

Clarity in every cut

Leather moves, grain shifts, and small errors multiply. This kiridashi brings steadiness—short, controllable, and weighted just right for detailed work. The included leather sheath keeps the edge protected between tasks, so it’s ready when the next line matters.

For the bench-led life

Leatherworkers and detail-focused makers who favor compact, precise tools with a confident feel.

In use

Trace patterns, mark stitch lines, and make controlled cuts on leather pieces directly on the grid mat or your favorite board.
