Blades:
Tanto - 8 1/2", Kaiken - 5 3/4" of forged 1095, hand sanded to 600 grit finish then etched and polished to reveal a wispy hamon.

Pennsylvania air dried American Black Walnut for both pieces. The Tanto has stainless steel bolster and a heat-colored copper "seppa", Moose bone ferrule, and a hand turned moose bone pin that has been domed, polished, and set proud. The Kaiken incorporates a Moose antler ferrule and hand turned pin also domed, polished, and set proud. These handles were both given a Tung oil (6 coats) and buffed paste wax finish.

Saya(s) -
Matching pieces of the same air dried Black Walnut. The Tanto has a moose bone ferrule set slightly proud of the mouth face to accommodate the copper "seppa", and a bone kurigata. The Kaiken wears a moose antler ferrule and kurigata. These sayas were both given a Tung oil (6 coats) and buffed paste wax finish.
