Deluxe Tanto - Exotic Woods - Tsubaki
Deluxe Tanto - TsubakiÂ
Made in Japan (Kyushu)
Flat Spine | Rounded butt | Short Kissaki
Tsubaki (Camellia japonica) available
Just like our deluxe bokken, this tanto is also available in exotic woods such as Tsubaki (Camellia japonica). Made from a single piece of wood from the southern islands of Kyushu (Japan), it is resolutely classical in its shape and length. It is the most widespread tanto standard that will suit all Aikidoka for their practice of Tanto-Dori.
These exotic woods tanto are also great gift ideas for the passing of a grading examination.
- Choice of wood species: Tsubaki.
- Available finish: unvarnished (camellia oil polish).
- Manufacturing workshop:Â Aramaki
All our high-end weapons are offered unvarnished (camellia oil polish finish). Note that unvarnished weapons are much more pleasant to the touch as well as usage.
Unvarnished weapons are more ecologically friendly, but they require regular (monthly) maintenance with oil (camellia or wood maintenance oil) and they can only be made from the finest, Japanese quality woods. Given the need for maintenance of these weapons, our stocks are limited. Also, since the craftsmen must select the best wood possible to manufacture these weapons, the processing time is longer than for varnished weapons. If out of stock or made to order, the shipping time can take up to 6 weeks in case of shortage.
