Deluxe Tanto - Classic Woods
Deluxe Tanto - Red/White Oak
Made in Japan (Kyushu)
Flat Spine | Rounded butt | Short Kissaki
Red Oak, White Oak available
Just like the Deluxe bokken, our deluxe tanto are available in white or red oak. They are made out of a single piece of wood from the south of the Kyushu islands (Japan). The shape and length are resolutely classic, making it a standard tanto that will be appreciated by all aikidoka.
- Choice of wood species: red oak, white oak.
- Available finish: Standard Finish, Seido Special Finish
- Manufacturing workshop: Aramaki
Finish options:
In 2021, with concerns for the workers, all workshops greatly reduced the number of urethane-varnished weapons and replaced the finish with a "Candle Wax". Seido is now transitioning to a new finish offer for the majority of its weapons.
Standard Finish: At Seido, we complete the workshop finish with Camelia oil treatment by default. This is the standard Seido finish.
We do not apply any additional polishing for this finish, so some weapons might have a slightly rough surface.
For maintenance, we recommend that you oil your weapons about once a month with a vegetal-based oil.
Seido Special Finish: For this special Finish, we first apply a Camelia oil polish (oiling and sanding the weapons with oiled sandpaper), then we finish the weapon with high-quality beeswax. This finish makes the wood as smooth as it can be and guarantee excellent protection for several months.
For maintenance, we recommend at least oil your weapons every month or so. You can also apply wax a few hours after oiling your weapons (if some oil remains on the wood, remove it with a piece of cloth or tissue).
