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.

Handmade Short Japanese Tanto Sword T10 Folded Clay Tempered Steel Real Hamon |
An exquisite craftmanship, very sturdy, genuine materials and really beautiful.
Only one point of disappointment, and it is a major one for me;
like written in your description of this Tanto :
- "razors edge sharp"
- "battle-ready swords"
- "built for cutting" (?!)
- "extremely sharp hand honed edge".
I am afraid it is not true.
I own a Katana with those qualities and this Tanto is not near
to cut something at all. It is even dull at some points to say the truth.
....but 4 stars anyway because it is awesome for display.

You get what you pay for. It’s a $70 tanto, certainly sharp and cool, but straight out of the packaging with messed up leather under the wrapping and the leather looks like white styrofoam.

Handmade Japanese Short Tanto Sword 1045 Carbon Steel |
The package arrived in good shape and a few days earlier than expected.
The Shirasaya Tanto TK-JZ-KT-L190016 shortsword appears to be well made and of good quality. I will put a final edge on the blade and polish up the brass fittings to bring it to it ‘s full potential . I am very satisfied.

Handmade Japanese Shirasaya Tanto Sword Damascus Steel |
I live in Australia and I received the item quite quickly (fantastic). The item itself was of very high quality, and came as described. Highly recommended.

Handmade Japanese Short Tanto Sword Damascus Steel |
The Tanto sword is high quality and well-finished. The package arrived quickly.
Unfortunately, the wood sheath arrived with a seven-inch crack along the bottom.
The crack is where the Tanto, when in the sheath, has the sharp length of the blade.
I intend to keep the Tanto because of the high quality. It is first-rate.
If another wood sheath with a black gloss finish is available, please let me know.
Thank you,
D. G.

Handmade Japanese Samurai Tanto Sword High Manganese Steel |
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.
