As far as companion weapons go, this is by far one our most stunning tantos. The first thing you notice about the Tori Tanto is the light-colored handle that has been wrapped in very high-quality ray skin. Then, you observe the “flying crane and armor” theme that is seen on the furniture. Moving to the 11-1/4” blade, you will appreciate the fuller in this forged and folded K120C powder steel blade. The saya offers a rich brown finish to make the katana’s textured brown finish. The is one of the most intriguing and certainly glamorous mounts that CAS/Hanwei has crafted.
