Description:
The Fox Knives Ryu is a modern interpretation of a classic Japanese tanto sword. A short sword that was originally used by Samurai. Today the term 'tanto' is used for a specific type of blade shape. It is characterized by the pointed tip and straight spine. Something you clearly see when you look at the Fox Ryu. Due to its strong tip this type of blade is perfect for penetrating tasks. But also daily tasks like opening a box will be a piece of cake.
This is a premium edition of the Ryu. The handle is made from stunning Elforyn Super Tusk. A material you don't often see. It was designed to replace ivory. It is white and up close you see different layers in the material. Just like real ivory. The scales are enhanced with finger grooves and a texture for enough grip. The end of the handle is enhanced with a lanyard hole to attach a piece of paracord. The pointed end of the handle is enhanced with a glass breaker. You can clearly tell that Fox Knives paid a lot of attention to the details. Everything is nicely rounded to make sure the only sharp part is the edge.
The blade is made from Herringbone Damascus. Made by Balbachdamast in Germany. This type of damascus steel owes its name to the herringbone pattern in the damascus. Incredibly unique! You can carry the Ryu in the leather sheath on your belt. The sheath is enhanced with a carbon fibre texture. Something you don't see very often.
