Product Description

Kimura Shigenari was a Japanese samurai in the 17th century. At the age of 21, he commanded an army for his first campaign at the Winter Siege of Osaka. Because of his bravery, Hideyori acclaimed him as the “peerless hero of the nation,” and presented him with a sword made by the famous swordsmith Masamune. Kimura returned the the sword because of his devotion to the Toyotomi clan.

The Kimura Damascus Tanto Knife is named for Kimura as a form of respect. While this is not a traditional style of the Japanese tanto, the combination of tanto tip, saw edge, and large finger-grooved handle would make a good choice for close quarters combat befitting of the samurai. Made of 1095 and 15n20 steels, the high carbon content of 1095 gives this knife an extremely sharp and durable edge and makes it the ideal choice for rough use.

Each knife in this collection is individually handmade with the same dedication to detail, and with all-natural materials. This means that each knife will vary slightly in its exact color, shape, and pattern, so you can rest assured that absolutely no two knives - even of the same model - will ever look identical or mass-produced.
