Blade- 5 1/4 inches to front of scales with finger choil for precision when required and a skull crusher on the tang for when it's not.

Finish- Hand sanded to 2000 grit then etched for a subdued finish.
Handle- 5 inches

Thanks guys, I was hesitant about the kirinte at first but it works easily, and finishes out super nice. The pictures really don't do it justice, it has a lot more going on than they show.
