Sheath for Kom Kom knife

Recommended Posts

Surgically sharp knife bloodied my index finger tip two days ago. Still need band aids!

I got the knife at local Asian market for next to nothing simply wanting to evaluate its utility. It takes an edge. The points are dangerous. Bloodied finger tip taught me to use only a pinch grip with this knife.  Other than that it slices and chops well when sharp. It doesn't have much backbone. But its great for softer veggies.

First time to angle the basket stamp so it doesn't run off the edge of the window. First time to deliberately orient a button hole correctly :) !

It's a good looking sheath. I'm hoping you have a welt on that thing. If it's that sharp it'd just run through the stitching like nobody's business.

Definitely has a welt! It has a really sharp edge now l but I don't know how long it will hold it, as it is a thin stamped stainless blade of unknown pedigree/hardness. Bevels sharpened at 15 degrees with a 1200 3000 6000 grit progression on whetstones, then stropped; it's scary sharp atm.
