Tanto Katana – Impressive display piece with modern tanto design

This Tanto Katana from Honshu is a striking decorative sword that combines modern design elements with classic Japanese styling. With a total length of 41 cm and a distinctive tanto-shaped blade, this is an impressive piece for your collection. The combination of stainless steel and rubber makes it a robust display object.

Why the Shogun team finds this katana special

What stands out to us is the unique tanto design of the blade with the continuous blood groove. The chrome finish gives this katana a modern look that contrasts beautifully with the traditional design. Its compact size makes it perfect for smaller display spaces.

Materials and finish of this katana

The 27.3 cm long blade is made from 440A stainless steel with a striking blood groove running the entire length. The blade finish in chrome provides a mirror effect. The handle features a full-tang construction with an overmoulded rubber grip, finished with a stainless steel guard for extra strength.

Grip, balance and presentation

Thanks to the full-tang construction, this katana feels solid and well-balanced. The weight is well distributed despite the relatively large blade. On a display stand, the shiny chrome finish is shown to its best advantage, especially when light falls on it.

Who is this katana suitable for?

Perfect for collectors who appreciate modern interpretations of classic Japanese swords. Also suitable for enthusiasts of tanto designs or as a first piece in a budding collection. The compact dimensions make it ideal for those looking for a collector’s sword without requiring much space.

Maintenance and durability

The 440A steel is relatively low-maintenance but does require regular dusting. Store the katana in the supplied leather sheath to prevent scratches. A drop of oil on the blade keeps the chrome finish beautifully shiny.
