## Description

A tanto is one of the traditionally made Japanese swords that were worn by the samurai class of feudal Japan. The tant&#xA8;&#xAD; dates to the Heian period, when it was mainly used as a weapon but evolved in design over the years to become more ornate. Tant&#xA8;&#xAD; were used in traditional martial arts (tantojutsu). The term has seen a resurgence in the West since the 1980s as a point style of modern tactical knives, designed for piercing or stabbing. The tant&#xA8;&#xAD; is a dagger. The blade is single or double edged with a length between 15 and 30 cm (6&#xA8;C12 inches, in Japanese 1 shaku). The tant&#xA8;&#xAD; was designed primarily as a stabbing weapon, but the edge can be used for slashing as well. Tant&#xA8;&#xAD; are generally forged in hira-zukuri style (without ridgeline), meaning that their sides have no ridge line and are nearly flat, unlike the shinogi-zukuri structure of a katana. Some tant&#xA8;&#xAD; have particularly thick cross-sections for armor-piercing duty, and are called yoroi toshi. Tant&#xA8;&#xAD; were mostly carried by samurai, as commoners did not generally wear them. Women sometimes carried a small tant&#xA8;&#xAD; called a kaiken in their obi primarily for self-defense. Tant&#xA8;&#xAD; were sometimes worn as the sh&#xA8;&#xAD;t&#xA8;&#xAD; in place of a wakizashi in a daish&#xA8;&#xAD;, especially on the battlefield. Before the advent of the wakizashi/tant&#xA8;&#xAD; combination, it was common for a samurai to carry a tachi and a tant&#xA8;&#xAD; as opposed to a katana and a wakizashi.

### ⭐ Not a Great Addition to my sword set
            
*by J***N on January 10, 2019*

Nice workmanship on the knife, but the scabbard is coated with cellophane that crinkles and falls off.
  

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Sharp not a toy
            
*by A***R on December 19, 2018*

It seems like it's good quality
