Kiridashi knife from an old bearing, using basic tools

Building a kiridashi style knife from an old car bearing (probably 52100 steel) using basic tools.
The handle is made of ipe (aka Brazilian walnut) wood scraps.
For me it is first time smithing, leather sewing and overall knife-making .
Dedicated to my father.
