Handmade Japanese Short Tanto Sword 1045 Carbon Steel |
Tanto was beautiful. Finishing was a little rough, I’ve seen the same fittings on other tanto’s, and the blade was loose in the Saya, I glued a small shim on the bottom of the opening, problem solved, but the quality is on the high side of good. Remember this is a 79.00 blade, Quality control in not at its finest. That being said, I enjoy the purchase and would buy another one if the need arises. Aesthetically it is a beautiful blade and makes for a good display piece. Its size might surprise you, the blade is over 12 inches long. I am overall Satisfied with the purchase.

The ito is semi-tight. The blade itself is very well done. Habaki is nicely done. The kahira and fuchi are very plain nothing special but the do their job. Sageo is definitely one of the nicer ones i have seen for a blade of this price.The Tsuba design is nice and the saya has a really cool design. Overall a nice collectors piece. I am happy with the selection.

This is a great tanto! Very well- made, with a sharp blade. The tsuba and grip are beautiful. I presume the sheath is made of wood. A great short sword for $80.00.r
Not a bad deal at all! Thank you.r

Handmade Japanese Double Edge Tanto Sword Full Tang |
The items is nice, scabbard fits and holds well. Good ballance. Grip feals great. I would take this blade into battle. The little details make this a 3 star review or I would expect a better quality for the price point. They used too much glue, it seeped from places leaving a bead around the edges. There appeared to be something on the brass before they blackened it, that rubbed off and revealed a untreated surface or blemish. Minor scratches on some parts of the tang part. And it radles, somewhere in the handle something makes a rattling noise when you swing it side to side or quick rotations in the rust.

Love the Tanto. Nicely packaged. The blade is sharp and I like the way the blade was preserved in shipping with a light oil. Very happy with my purchase and will buy again.

Main reason is there’s some white and blueish green crude all over the guard . I think it’s a great show piece and possibly a tool but I have yet to test it out forged in fire style

Handmade Japanese Short Tanto Sword 1045 Carbon Steel |
I have purchased over a dozen items so far. I absolutely love my swords and stands. Some scabbards were not tight as they warp a tiny bit with heat changes in shipping. This is only a couple out of the many. Customer service was extremely helpful and explained this to me as well as a way to fix on my end. 5 stars. Great business, great products and great customer service. Thanks.

Hate to give such a low star but, in the description it said sharpened edge and it was far from it... It has a very nice feel in the hand and has a very attractive blade. Both the Sageo and the tsuka are very nicely finished and fit well together. I understand for the price point it will not be perfect but if it says sharpened edge in the description the edge should be sharpened.

Handmade Shirasaya Tanto Sword T10 Carbon Steel Real Hamon |
I'm an early Iaido student 2nd year and I wanted a small tanto to complement the shinken.
I didn't want something too big like a Wakizashi but for a tanto it's on the longer side.
Depending on your hand size this is a single handed tsuka.
For really small hands you might be able to get both hands around the tsuka.
I like the red and black tint on the tsuka that's what attracted me.
It looks great and I feel like the craftsmenship on this blade is worth more than it's value.
Note: blade seemed to come in dry no choji oil appeared to be on the blade. So check to make sure.
