February 1, 20188 yr Tanto & Kogatana Set prototype complete! This design has been in the work for some time - I've been fixated on knife sets for months. This tanto comes with it's own small utility knife called a Kogatana, typically found on katana. Blades are 80CrV2 with hamons. The sheath and scales are black linen micarta. Fittings are cast bronze. Blades are secured with magnets in the sheath. This tanto will be available as part of a limited production run I'm doing soon; people would have the choice of 80CrV2 or S35VN stainless, and any color linen micarta. Input and critique always appreciated. VID_26330815_134402_214.mp4

February 3, 20188 yr Very cool. I love the skeleton blade that slips in the sheath. The tanto is amazing. Incredible work
February 3, 20188 yr I like the way you put the kogatana in the sheath, it blends in very well, but also presents itself for use. Fantastic work on the tanto as well.
