Kami Tanto
|
Kami Tanto is a highly desired item for any avid collector. Each piece in the Kami group has a hand forged and folded ASSAB-K120C powder steel blade, differentially tempered to produce an HRC60 edge, HRC40 back and a distinctive hamon.
Kami Tanto features Saya which are deeply glossed in red, with a black ring carved section at the sageo. The ray skin used on the tsuka is of the greatest quality, and the tsuka-ito on the Katana and Wakizashi and the sageo on all three pieces are interwoven from highest quality Japanese silk. The Kami Collection has The Fuchi, Kashira, Kojiri, Koiguchi and Kurigata that are all made from blackened bronze, with decoration in relief and exclusive detailing of copper, silver and gold.
The Tsuba of the Katana and Wakizashi, depicting the Kami, or Guardian Warriors, are produced from hardened blackened copper, with decoration in relief and selective silver and gold detailing. The Habaki is of two part construction, the inner section being copper and the outer section gold plated brass. The blades are engraved, at the Habaki, with a hand-engraved "Fudo" horomono, a classical blade carving from the Edo period. The blades of all three pieces are grooved on both sides, and each piece features a long Kissaki.
