Imperial Series O Tanto (88T)

Cold Steel uses only traditional materials for their Japanese sword?s fittings. The Tsuba (guard), Fuchi (collar), and Kashira (pommel), are expertly made and finely crafted from black iron. The Habaki (blade collar), is hand made out of polished brass and each hilt is covered in Sam?(ray skin) and tightly wrapped in the traditional style with black cord. A beautiful brass Menuki ( a small, ornamental sculpture inserted between the ray skin and the cord wrappings on the handle) enhances the sword?s aesthetic appearance and makes for a sword that is as traditional as possible. Comes complete with a black lacquered wood scabbard and a blue/violet cover bag.
