Tanto (all models)

About

About Our Tanto Lineup The wooden weapons proposed by Seido are manufactured by one of the last traditional japanese workshops in the region of Miyakonojo (Kyushu) , in the south of Japan (learn more about the workshops on our Artisans Presentation Page ). This section contains all Tanto offered by Seido, made from wood, but also rubber tanto , soft tanto (made by KuSakura) and alloy tanto (similar to Iaito blades , made by Minosaka). Almost all wooden Tanto can be engraved directly in our facilities within a few days. In 2021, with concerns for the workers, all workshops greatly reduced the number of urethane varnished weapons and replaced the finish by a "Candle Wax". Seido is now transitioning to a new finish offer for the majority of its weapons, which consist in a either camellia oil treatment (standard finish) or a camellia oil with extra polishing + bee wax finish (Seido special finish). Until all stocks for varnish weapons run out, varnish finish is still offered on some weapons.
