We've asked them to make for us a few swords in the same style, but made in the same way as their custom swords. Crafted individually from start to finish, each one is of course a bit unique in it's own way. Limited to 100 tanto, each is signed by the smith on the nakago with the sword number and comes with a matching certificate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe blade features a hand forged and differentially hardened DNH7 high-carbon steel blade. Each blade is hand polished using traditional stones and powders to produce an authentic look. Each fitting (tsuba, fuchi, kashira) is meticulously hand crafted in pure iron. Each piece is therefore slightly unique and held to a high standard of excellence. Citadel is one of only a handful of sword makers worldwide that still produces fittings in this manner. The tsuka is carved to each individual blade ensuring a tight friction fit with a full same-gawa wrap. The ito or handle wrapping is dark blue wrapped silk imported from Japan. The saya is a work of art in its own right, completely wrapped in ray-skin. Each saya is painstakingly hand carved for the individual piece ensuring a proper snug fit.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Citadel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42961261035625,"sku":"SC4047","price":1399.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0088\/6469\/4377\/files\/SC4047.png?v=1772638859"},{"product_id":"baika-tanto","title":"Baika Tanto","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan id=\"ctl00_contentBody_lblKF\"\u003e9\" san mai steel blade\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan id=\"ctl00_contentBody_lblKF\"\u003eFully wrapped ray skin handle\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan id=\"ctl00_contentBody_lblKF\"\u003eBeautiful plum blossom motif\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eItem # SD35460\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOverall: 15 1\/8\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBlade Length: 9\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHandle Length: 4 3\/4\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight: 12 oz\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePoint of Balance: 1\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWidth at Guard: 26.5m\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWidth at Tip: 17.7mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThickness at Guard: 6mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThickness at Tip: 2mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBlade Steel: San Mai\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHrc Edge: 60\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHrc Back: 40\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHandle Material: Ray Skin\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the creative mind of Frenchie Jin,  CAS proudly presents the Baika Tanto from the Dragon King forge.  This unique piece features a san-mai stainless steel blade and a fully wrapped,  genuine ray skin handle.  San-mai is an ancient lamination technique developed by the master forgers of Japan,  where steels of differing qualities could be combined to produce a superior blade.  In this style of san-mai,  a hard steel core is forge welded between two pieces of softer steel.  The result is a stainless steel blade with an exceptional edge holding which retains the toughness of the softer steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeautiful and functional with a plum blossom motif,  this tanto is light in the hand and grips firmly with nodes of the ray skin.  Finely detailed,  gold plated oriole menuki and accents demonstrate Frenchie's keen attention to detail on all Dragon King designs.  The gold saya and brown and gold sageo match beautifully and would make the Baika Tanto a great companion piece to the\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca title=\"Dragon King Samurai Swords\" href=\"https:\/\/casiberia.com\/product\/tatsumaki-katana\/sd35120\"\u003eTatsumaki Katana (SD35120)\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dragon King Swords","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43016445821033,"sku":"SD35460","price":719.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0088\/6469\/4377\/files\/SD35460.png?v=1773942231"}],"url":"https:\/\/cassamuraiswords.com\/collections\/tanto.oembed","provider":"CAS Samurai Swords","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
