7-1/4"(185mm) Japanese Kiridashi Kogatana Knife

"Being a graphic design student I use this to cut 80lbs-100lbs paper and this gives an easier, cleaner cut than an xacto blade. The pure pressure you sometimes have to put behind an xacto to cut heavier paper is a little fearful due to experiences of snapping blades. But this with the chisel grind stays flat against the ruler and puts a nice taper or flat edged on the paper depending which side you cut on. I only prefer it for bigger cuts due to its size and not able to do fine detailed cut outs. "
