Not the back? The back flat?** A: it is only sharpened on one side. The other is completely flat **Q: Is there a sheath to store the knife in safely?** A: It comes with a flimsy, transparent plastic sheath (see my photos). However, if you have acess to a 3D printer, I made a hard cap for it. File is available on Thingiverse. Search for "Kiridashi cap" **Q: Would this be an appropriate knife to use for kolrosing?** A: I can’t say for sure as this is the first time I’ve ever heard of kolrosing. The knife is extremely sharp and in my experience holds an edge well. However, it is made to cut along only one edge (If you hold a straight edge with your left hand and use your right hand to scribe a line using the right edge of the straight edge it is great. However, it would be very difficult to use the the knife in your left hand on the left side of the straightedge). ## Frequently Bought Together - KAKURI Kiridashi Knife 12mm (Curved) Right Hand for Woodworking, Marking, Carving, Whittling, Professional Hand Forged Razor Sharp Japanese Carbon Steel Blade with Hammered Pattern, Made in JAPAN - KAKURI Kiridashi Knife 18mm Right Hand for Woodworking, Marking, Scribing, Carving, Whittling, Professional Hand Forged Razor Sharp Japanese Carbon Steel Blade with Hammered Pattern, Made in JAPAN - KAKURI Kiridashi Knife 12mm Right Hand for Woodworking, Marking, Scribing, Carving, Whittling, Professional Hand Forged Razor Sharp Japanese Carbon Steel Blade with Hammered Pattern, Made in JAPAN --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/212665611-kakuri-curved-kiridashi-knife-12mm-right-handed-woodworking-marking-knife](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/212665611-kakuri-curved-kiridashi-knife-12mm-right-handed-woodworking-marking-knife) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-10-30*
