Bamboo Tanto

No doubt, solely conceived in the mind of Frenchie Jin,  this exquisite and unassuming tanto conceals more than just a cool piece of steel in a bamboo motiff.  Place your thumb on the circle on the saya to know the direction of the blade edge,  and your other thumb on the highly detailed mon on the handle to draw it open.  Cleverly concealed,  the choji hamon pattern whisps across the 5"  T10 blade to the silver habaki.  The tapered mune (spine) sweetens lines on this piece making it a singular piece of sword art.
