Martial Arts and Crafts

The Heian period in Japan resulted in tons of incredible art, poetry, and literature. Oh yeah, and also one of the most badass blades in human history—the Tanto, a Japanese short sword used in traditional martial arts.

Paying homage to the tactical, ornate style of this distinctive weapon, the Tactical Tanto Knife Making Kit is a must-have for the knife enthusiast looking to level up from beginner build-a-blade projects.

Summon his inner samurai with the Tactical Tanto Knife Making Kit, a classic short sword that’s long on valor. 

Knife in Pieces 

• With nickel bolsters and pins, red G10 liners, and layered black and gray G10 handle scales, he'll make a handle so striking, he can barely handle it.
• He'll whisper "domo arigato" as he gazes upon the razor-sharp, AUS-8 stainless steel, full-tang blade.
• No self-respecting warrior carries a bare blade under his kimono. Precisely why we've included a custom-molded kydex sheath and paracord wrap.
• The extensive assembly guide will serve as his all-knowing sensei in his quest to craft the ultimate tactical tanto.
