Description
The Full Tang Tanto is a traditional blade, forged with a 14cm edge crafted from 420 stainless steel. This steel is known for its ability to hold a keen edge while resisting corrosion, making it practical for both display and use. The handle is fashioned from solid ebony wood, measuring 11cm, offering a firm, steady grip that feels natural in the hand. The full tang design means the blade’s steel extends through the entire length of the handle, lending strength and balance to the knife’s 26cm overall length. This construction style has been favored by bladesmiths for centuries, as it provides resilience under rigorous use.
