About time this were done! 
Low light pictures - sorry!
A trade with Grebby has resulted in these ready to post:
He has previously had a kiridashi off me so requested another couple - left and right. The original he had was a right hander so for this right hander I went a bit off base and made more of a knife than a kiri, but still chisel ground.
A bit of olive for the handle, the butt left exposed to show the file tang stamps but nicely rounded for comfort.

The kiridashi is a left hand chisel grind and tucks neatly in the hand:
