The sageo is woven from Japanese cotton. The fuchi and kashira are of blackened bronze with brass detailing, and the kojira, koiguchi and kurigata are of polished horn. The habaki is brass. The Bushido Tanto blade is grooved on both sides. This companion piece to your functional sword has been traditionally constructed by Hanwei under direction of Paul Chen. This tanto comes pre-sharpened for the martial artist and tameshigiri cutting.
