Frequently Asked Questions

What specific elements are verified?
Carbon steel blade, full-tang construction, genuine clay-tempered hamon, ray skin handle wrapping, cord ito, bamboo mekugi pins, and fitted wooden saya.
How does authentic tanto differ from our other tanto?
All our tanto are authentic. This collection highlights the verification for collectors who prioritize confirmed genuine construction.
Are authentic tanto available at all prices?
Yes. Authenticity is consistent across all price points. Steel grade and design complexity affect price; construction standards never change.
What is the easiest authenticity check?
Magnet test on the blade (carbon steel is magnetic). Then check hamon depth under angled light — genuine hamon shows depth, etched fakes are surface-only.
