The Sniper Bladeworks Signature Reload Dashi brings a compact, purpose-built cutting tool shaped for outdoor reliability and everyday utility. It features a 3.25-inch 1095 carbon steel Kiridashi blade finished in black PVD coating, giving it added wear resistance while helping reduce glare in the field. The chisel-ground edge design leans into precision work, offering controlled slicing and clean detail cuts in a compact footprint.
Built for versatility, it carries a straightforward, no-nonsense design that excels when space is limited but performance still matters. At 7.5 inches overall and 4.58 ounces, it balances portability with enough heft to feel solid and dependable in hand. The included molded plastic sheath with belt clip makes carry simple and secure, whether it’s riding on a pack, belt, or gear setup.
The Dashi name comes from Kiridashi, a traditional Japanese utility knife used by carpenters and craftspeople. Defined by its single-bevel chisel grind, the concept is rooted in precision and practicality. Sniper Bladeworks’ interpretation modernizes that heritage into a compact fixed blade that can function as a neck knife or small field utility tool, depending on how it’s carried.
