  Product Information
Inspired by custom knife maker Bud Nealy’s work in the late 1980’s, these knives are available in two different blade styles: with either a reinforced Tanto
Tanto
Tanto Blade: The classic Japanese tanto shape has the point exactly inline with the spine of the blade, and has a graceful belly curve. Most tantos seen on the American cutlery market are the Americanized tanto format. Like the Japanese tanto, the Americanized tanto has a high-point in-line with the spine. A flat grind is applied to the point, leaving it very thick and massively strong. The front edge meets the bottom edge at an obtuse angle, rather than curving to meet it as in the Japanese tanto. There is a separate grind applied to the bottom edge, often a hollow grind to leave this edge extremely sharp. Other tanto formats have become popular also, and modifications such as clipping the point or applying a chisel-grind are often seen.
 point style (first popularized by Cold Steel®), or with a “long sword point” that’s particularly well suited for slashing. Both are precision ground out of VG-1 San Mai III® steel and vacuum heat-treated and sub zero quenched for maximum strength, toughness, and edge retention. They are ground to a thin edge before being honed to razor sharpness, and they have an attractive mirror polish and come with a traditional ridge shaped Muné (spine of the blade) and double fullers.



Here are some additional features:


Tapered Tang
Tang
The tang is the part of the knife where the blade stops and the handle starts. There are many different terms used to describe what kind of tang a knife has, because the strength and other characteristics of the knife depend on the tang format.

A full tang knife has a tang that goes the length of the handle at full width, and you can see the tang spine itself because the handle slabs are afixed to each side. This is the strongest tang format.

To save weight, the maker can taper the tang so it gets thinner as it goes back into the handle; this is appropriately enough called a tapered tang.

If the tang disappears into the handle itself, it's called a hidden tang.

If the tang thins out considerably once it goes into the handle, it's called a stick tang.
: Both knives include a perforated tapered Tang

. This feature, though costly, dramatically improves the knife’s balance and reduces its overall weight without sacrificing strength where it’s most needed.


Bolster: Bolsters serve to strengthen the handle and prevent it from cracking or splitting under stress. The Konjo’s™ are equipped with highly polished nickel silver bolsters designed to emulate the Habaki (blade collar) on a Japanese sword.


Handle: The grip scales are made of highly polished black linen Micarta
Micarta
Micarta Material: Layers of linen cloths soaked in resin and pressured together. Most commonly used on more stylish knives due to its rich finish qualities. Available in colors.
. These have been hand fitted and permanently attached to the Tang
