Tanto Knife Blanks
The tanto point comes from the Japanese tanto: a strong, angular tip with plenty of steel right behind the point. After laser cutting, our tanto knife blanks are hand ground in our Istanbul workshop and heat treated at Voestalpine, in N690, Elmax and 1.4116, ready for scales and pins. For a Japanese tanto style kitchen knife, see the tanto chef and yanagiba blanks in Kitchen & Chef Knife Blanks.
