Product detailed description

Decorative Shira Saya Tanto Black Wood with AISI 1045 Steel Blade

Forged tanto replica with a blade made of AISI 1045 carbon steel, hardness grade 48 HRC, with a polished hamon imitation. This collectible item can be used as a decoration, as well as a training aid. Due to the price/performance ratio and lower steel hardness, the item is not suitable for cutting harder materials. The steel is not differentially hardened (the hamon is only polished). Cutting hard materials could leave marks on the material. An attractive blade, a black matte saya, and a tsuka made of hardwood make this piece a sought-after accessory. The item is stored in a fabric bag and a paper box.

This collectible item is intended exclusively for decorative purposes and for practicing traditional forms. The company Dellinger recommends careful handling appropriate to the nature of this collectible piece. Keep out of reach of children. Any handling of this replica is at your own risk and should be carried out in accordance with the rules for handling historical replica tools.

Tanto is a traditional Japanese knife that a samurai wore together with a wakizashi and a katana in a set called (daishō). The blade length should not exceed 30.3 cm. The tanto knife was designed for precise material penetration. The tanto has a high blade with flat grinding, which leads to effective penetration. This "dagger" could also be worn for protection by common people, while longer blades in the daishō set could only be worn by samurai.
