Introducing a finely crafted tanto that perfectly embodies the balance between traditional Japanese sword-making techniques and modern artistry. This exceptional tanto is designed for collectors, martial artists, and enthusiasts who appreciate both the functional excellence and the aesthetic beauty of a finely crafted blade. With its sharp-edged blade and luxurious detailing, this tanto is not just a weapon but also a stunning piece of art.
Key Features:
Sharp-Edged T10 Carbon Steel Blade with Real Hamon:
The heart of this tanto is its handmade blade, forged from T10 carbon steel, a material celebrated for its exceptional hardness and durability. The blade is meticulously hand-sharpened, achieving a sharp edge. It is clay tempered, a traditional process that enhances the blade’s flexibility and strength, resulting in a real hamon—a wavy pattern along the blade’s edge that signifies expert craftsmanship and adds a striking visual element.
Elegant Handle Wrapped in White Samegawa and Yellow Cord:
The handle, or tsuka, is designed for both comfort and style. It features genuine white samegawa (ray skin) that provides a secure and textured grip, wrapped in a vibrant yellow cord for added stability and a touch of elegance. The contrasting colors create a visually appealing design, making the tanto as beautiful as it is functional.
Luxurious Marble Style Saya with Multi-Color Hue:
The saya, or scabbard, is crafted from premium hardwood and finished with natural lacquer, creating a sleek and durable surface. It features a marble-style design with a multi-color hue, adding a layer of sophistication and artistry to the tanto. The saya is further enhanced with real horn Koiguchi (mouth) and Kojiri (end), adding durability and an authentic touch to the scabbard’s design. This exquisite saya not only protects the blade but also serves as a beautiful complement to the overall aesthetic of the tanto.
Intricate Copper Tsuba with Gold and Silver Gilding:
The tsuba, or handguard, is made from high-quality copper and features intricate patterns that reflect the artistry involved in its creation. The tsuba is further enhanced with gold and silver gilding technology, adding a luxurious and refined finish. This beautifully crafted tsuba not only serves as a functional guard for the hand but also elevates the tanto’s artistic value, making it a true collector’s item.
This tanto is a perfect blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern design, offering both functionality and visual appeal. From the T10 carbon steel blade with its real hamon to the elegantly wrapped handle and the intricately gilded tsuba, every aspect of this tanto has been thoughtfully designed and expertly crafted. Whether displayed as a centerpiece in a collection or used in martial arts practice, this tanto is sure to captivate and impress with its quality, craftsmanship, and timeless elegance.
