Tanto Akaryū (赤龍短刀) – Blade of the Crimson Dragon
Fierce in presence and precise in craftsmanship, the Tanto Akaryū brings together fire, tradition, and honor in a single blade. Forged from 1060 carbon steel, the blade features a bo-hi (fuller), reducing weight and enhancing speed and balance. It’s a functional choice for martial artists and a stunning centerpiece for collectors.
The handle (tsuka) is adorned with striking red rayskin under a traditional cord wrap, offering both beauty and grip. The finely sculpted iron tsuba, with intricate motifs, enhances the blade’s traditional aesthetic while providing balanced hand protection. The lacquered solid wood saya, finished in a fiery red-gold shimmer, completes the look with richness and depth.
