Enjoy Kage No Senshi Tsurugi Tanto, Battle-Blades
Kage no senshi tsurugi tanto, battle-blades
With the kage no senshi chokuto proving to be a success, Battle-Blades felt they needed something even stealthier, crueler, and different to pair it with, so they created not one, but two consecutive double-edged short swords from the same era. These double-edged swords are commonly known as tsurugi, which literally translates as blade/sword. This word is most commonly used in Japanese for straight, double-edged swords, but also for other foreign swords with the same characteristics.
The tsurugi is one of the earliest swords that paved the way for Japanese weaponry. Some of the tsurugi discovered on Japanese soil date back to 700 BC. They are mostly of Chinese origin, as straight-bladed swords were not widely used in feudal Japan. Compared to the original tsurugi, with these versions Battle-Blades took artistic liberty to create something never seen before while keeping the main components true to the original. For example, the long tsuka often seen on tantos and wakizashis today is too long and lacks any historical significance. They wanted to give these swords a short tsuka, as short swords in Japan actually had. This compact tsuka style is also beneficial when the weapon is used with the correct techniques. Since a short, smaller tsuka makes balancing the sword a challenge, Battle-Blades decided to make the nagako much wider and thicker than usual to be able to optimally balance the weapons.
This double-edged T10 steel tanto is forged and polished entirely by hand. The true midare-style hamon gives the sword a harmonious look. It was equipped according to the kage no senshi shinobi suit with midnight blue ray skin and tsuka-ito wrap. The blade protection is a jet-black saya, fully custom-made with a unique koiguchi shape for easier sheathing.
