Previous Item Next Item Practical Tanto (実短刀)  

The Practical Tanto offers excellent quality at a great price. The blade is hand-forged high-carbon steel and differentially tempered using a traditional claying method to produce a HRC60 on the edge (ha) and a HRC40 on the back (mune). The temper line (hamon) is authentic and prominent. The fittings (koshirae) are superbly antiqued adding to the aesthetics of the set. The saya is done in a deep black lacquer and the sageo is black Japanese cotton.
