The Great Wave Tanto from Paul Chen of Hanwei displays the Tomoe motif used frequenly for family crests and shrine decoration. The koshirae are crafted in blackened iron and feature the Tomoe mon. The blade is hand-forged from T10 high-carbon steel and is differentially hardened to produce a distinctive hamon. The tanto`s tsuka is crafted in ribbed buffalo horn and the saya is deeply lacquered in black. See models SH5004 for the Great Wave Katana.
Please note: the katana, wakizashi or tanto’s sageo (cord) on the saya (scabbard) may not be wrapped as pictured. Sageo color may vary.
