Ivory Handle Tanto 621

Tanto with ivory handle

The ivory-handled tanto is a short weapon with an elegant design, characterized by a small blade and a simple but effective tsuka or handle. It was often considered a 'small katana' due to its similarity in shape and close relationship to this iconic samurai weapon.

Although less well-known than other weapons such as the wakizashi or the kodachi, the tanto became a widely used secondary weapon among samurai. In fact, many warriors preferred it to other options due to its lightness and the training they had received in hand-to-hand martial arts.
