The Bugei Bamboo Tanto is a meticulously crafted Japanese dagger renowned for its sharpness and precision. Featuring a hand-forged carbon steel blade with a bamboo-themed design, it comes with a traditional wooden saya (scabbard). Perfect for collectors and practitioners alike, it exemplifies the artistry and functionality of Japanese tanto knives.
The Bamboo Tanto is a great companion piece to the Bamboo Katana. Made in the same tradition and high-quality materials as the katana, this tanto performs with superior functionality and grace. The overall motif mirrors that of the katana and would make a beautiful addition for the collector or the practitioner.
The hamon (temper line) and hada (grain/layers) on this forged and folded steel tanto blade are prominent in the polish.
