Product information "Practical Plus Tanto"
The Practical Plus Tanto provides a very economical cutting tanto, but uses more traditional fittings and construction methods. The blade is hand-forged high-carbon steel and differentially tempered using a traditional claying method (HRC 60 edge, HRC 40 spine) with a medium (chu) kissaki. The temper line (hamon) is evident and prominent. The Practical Plus Tanto uses a flat black saya and a black Japanese cotton sageo. The tsuka has genuine ray skin (same) and the tsuka-ito is black synthetic leather for better gripping qualities. The antiqued fittings on this set are decorated in a Japanese dogwood motif with a beautiful antiqued black sunburst tsuba. A great economical tanto with fantastic quality.

Wirklich gut garbeitetes Tanto, schöne Echt Leder Wicklung am für europäer etwas kurzen Griff. Wirklich Scharf. Danke für den Kalendergewinn

Die Klinge ist schön geschmiedet, mit schöner Hamon die Montierungen sind auch gut gemacht. Die Saya ist sehr schön und vor allem robust, ich glaube der Lackierung kann so schnell nichts anhaben. Leider ist der große Knackpunkt die Wicklung. Sie ist furchtbar und ich denke man sollte diese durch Seide ersetzten. Das tat ich und jetzt gefällt es mir persönlich super. Auch die Menuki habe ich ausgetauscht. Das Tanto würde von mir 5 sterne bekommen, da es aber so eine schreckliche Kunstlederwicklung hat, bekommt es nur 4. Ich habe im Lagerverkauf 135 für das Tanto gezahlt, wenn ich den Preis hier gezahlt hätte würde das Tanto nur 3 Sterne von mir bekommen. Das wickeln ist ja noch ein recht hoher Auffwand und die Ito kostet ja auch noch etwas. Aber ansonsten kann ich es empfehlen wenn jemand gut wickeln kann oder sogar die Ito aus kunstleder schön findet. Aber sonst gibt es für mich nichts zu meckern, mit Seide und oder Baumwolle wärs aber perfekt.

Maintenance Kit
The maintainance kit has everything in it which you need for the must of care for your handmade sword. Comes with oil and powder. Oil is used to prevent the rust of the sword. Oil makes a film of the oil between the sword body and the air, and it prevents the oxidization of the sword body. Oil dries in about some time. Therefore, reprint it in the new oil once in a month. The thing which made a whetstone powder-shaped is being packed into the Uchiko. White powder appears from the Uchiko when a sword body is struck with the Uchiko. There are two use purposes. The Uchiko removes the old oil which sticks to the sword body. Furthermore, the Uchiko beautifies the surface of the sword. Nuguigami: The Nuguigami is not just regular paper, it is high quality thick japanese paper for cleaning swords. It is used for wiping out old oil and wiping out the Uchiko. The Mekuginuki is used to remove the Mekugi of the sword. The Mekuginuki can remove the Mekugi with the sharp part. In order to use the Mekuginuki for removing the Mekugi, the hammerhead part can be removed from the rest of the Mekuginuki. How to take care for your sword: How to take care of the sword after an Iaido practices or Tameshigiri will be explained with this topic. Take care of the sword after the practices always. If the care for the sword is neglected, a sword rusts in the sweat of the hand. Face an edge toward the top, and pull out a sword slowly from the sheath. Then, be careful not to damage a sheath. Hold the sword pulled out with your left hand. Then, remove old oil and dust from the sword with the Nuguigami. Put a Nuguigami on the Mune of the sword when wiping the sword, and wipe the sword toward the top from the bottom. Pat a sword body with the Uchiko. Powder equally on the both sides of the sword body. Then, wipe the white powder with the new Nuguigami which is different from the paper used some time ago. Repeat this handle, and remove the blurs of the oil completely. Apply new oil to the sword body, and put away a sword to the sheath. Put the oiling paper on the Mune of the sword when oiling the sword, and oil the sword toward the top from the bottom. Don't oil a sword in quantity very much. Oil equally the both sides of the sword body. If the care for the sword is finished, put a sword in the sword bag, and keep it. Keep a sword in the place where it dries in the shade. How to take care of the sword of this topic isn't perfect. Therefore, remove the hilt once in three months, and care for the tang (Nakago) and so on.The mekuginuki is not included in this cleaning set!
