It's been over a year since I've fired up my forge. So Yesterday I tried my hammer skills on a 3 inch scrap piece from an old file. Ended up hammering out a 5 inch small kiridachi knife. It felt good to pound hot metal again...tippit

Very nifty little knife. :thumbsup:
Glad you are back at doing something you enjoy after a year layoff. That has to feel great!
Good to see you back at it again Jeff! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
its always good to shape steal to your will. glad you got back to it
It's always a good feeling doing something you like :thumbsup:
Welcome back!!!
very nice :clapper:
:thumbsup:
That is a cool little blade and more useful than most would think!
Over the years I have owned about every design out there for skinning/cleaning but that design you have in your hand is my go to design for sure . I actually clean most of my hogs and deer these days with the blade on a Gerber Diesel multi tool. The Diesel has that exact same profile and I love it. If you ever wanted to let one like that go maybe in a little flat sheath I would be your guy. Glad you are back at it buddy!
I am glad! The knife looks great! Jawge
strick9,
Something like a flat Kydex sheath. That is safe in the pocket or on a pop bead neck lanyard? I really like orange Kydex as it is easy to find when you lay the sheath down in the woods. Don't ask me how I came to this realization :knothead:

Just in time for St Judes :goldtooth:
Glad you are back at it Jeff. I was just using my Tippit Knife the other day. Great knife.
Added little antler handle grip...

That knife would be good for leather work.
Very nice!
