Tanto Series - Dragonfly O Tanto
Manufacture ID: 88DT
These swords feature thicker, wider and heavier blades, which mirror the Emperor Series in respect to heat treatment, polish, quality of furnishings, and attention to detail, but with a few other departures.
Most noticeable are the distinctive teal-green silk cord-wrap and black sam (ray skin) used on the handles and the black iron furniture that bears the dragonfly motif. Also, the polished blades are more strongly curved than the Emperor blades and terminate in a long "iris leaf" point for maximum cutting and slashing potential. Additionally, these swords come with two protective bags. There is a blue travel bag and an intricately decorative display bag that's made from the finest heavy silk metallic brocade.
Specifications:
- Blade Length: 15"
- Overall Length: 21"
- Steel: 1055 Carbon
- Weight: 20.6 oz
- Handle: 6" Sam (Ray Skin) Handle with Teal Green Cord with Brass Menuki
- Scabbard: Black Lacquered Wood Scabbard
