Tanto NIDOME
HON BIWA - Japanese short wooden sword katana

Weight: approx. 120g

Length: approx. 30cm

This tanto is solid and has a beautiful surface.

Medlar: In ancient times, the medlar was used by warlords and swordsmen due to its great rigidity and elasticity. However, medlar is becoming increasingly rare and its wood, difficult to obtain, has therefore become very precious, like Sunuke.

This TANTO is made of 300 year old wood from the southern part of Japan.

These bokken are made in the traditional manufacture by NIIDOME Bokuto Seisakujo at Miyakonojo in Kyushu.
