Discover the Excellence of the Japanese Samurai Sword Tanto:

Unveil the extraordinary craftsmanship and precision of the Japanese Samurai Sword Tanto. Crafted with the utmost care and attention to detail, this tanto represents the epitome of traditional Japanese swordsmithing.

Superior Steel and Maru-style Lamination:

The blade is meticulously forged from 1095 high carbon steel, utilizing a Maru-style lamination technique.

Repeated heat treatments and hand forging ensure the removal of impurities and the enhancement of the blade’s durability.

Genuine Hamon for Authenticity:

The clay tempering process, which combines toughness and flexibility, results in the creation of a genuine hamon (temper line) on the blade.

This hamon is present from the base to the tip of the blade, showcasing an authentic and visually striking feature.

Functional Design and Balance:

The blade is full tang, providing structural integrity and balance.

Short, deep Hi (grooves) on each side of the blade contribute to both its lightness and the production of an audible feedback when swung.

Exquisite Tsuba-less Design:

The tanto features a tsuba-less design, emphasizing the simplicity and functionality of the sword.

A one-piece brass habaki (blade collar) and two seppas (spacers) secure the tsuba-less construction.

Natural Hard Hualee Wood Tsuka and Saya:

The tsuka (handle) is crafted from natural hard hualee wood, offering a comfortable and secure grip.

The saya (sheath) is also made from natural hard hualee wood, complementing the overall aesthetics of the sword.

Durable Bull Horn Mekugi:

Two bull horn mekugi (pegs) secure the tang to the tsuka, ensuring stability and longevity.
