Hanwei's Kami Tanto has a hand-forged and folded K120C powder steel blade featuring a hand-engraved "Fudo" Horimono and Bo-Hi. The folding process creates exceptional hada, or grain pattern, along the blade accentuated by the distinctive hamon. 

The ray skin used on the tsuka is of the highest quality, and the sageo is woven from best quality Japanese silk. The fuchi, kashira, kojiri, koiguchi and kurigata are all made from blackened bronze, with decoration in relief and selective detailing of copper, silver and gold.

The Kami, or guardian warriors, are depicted on the fuchi.

The habaki is a two-piece construction, the inner section being copper and the outer section  gold-plated brass.

The saya is deeply lacquered in red, with a black ring-carved section at the mouth.

Every Kami Tanto knife comes with a custom-fit cloth bag for proper protection and a Japanese blade maintenance kit.

The matching Kami Katana (Product no. SH1201) is also available to complete your collection.
