This superb design knife is hand forged. Blade of this knife has a nice file work and is made of 512 layers of stainless steel and high carbon steel with hardness 55-60 HRC. While this is not a traditional style of the Japanese tanto, we like to think that the combination of tanto tip, saw edge and large finger-grooved handle, would make a good choice for close quarter combat and fitting of the samurai. Made of 1095 and 15n20 steels, the high carbon content of 1095 gives this knife an extremely sharp and durable edge and makes it the ideal choice for rough use.
