Certificate of Origin and Quality. Made in Toledo, Spain.
The tantō is commonly referred to as a knife or dagger. The blade is single or double edged, was designed primarily as a stabbing weapon,
Tantō are generally forged in hira-zukuri style (without ridgeline), meaning that their sides have no ridge line and are nearly flat, unlike the shinogi-zukuri structure of a katana.
Women sometimes carried a small tantō called a kaiken in their obi primarily for self-defense.
With the advent of the katana, the wakizashi eventually was chosen by samurai as the short sword over the tantō.
