Hozon Tanto for Sale
Hozon-certified tanto provide an accessible gateway to collecting authenticated Japanese daggers. The NBTHK Hozon designation assures each blade's genuineness and recognized craftsmanship. Tanto under 30 cm in blade length showcase the swordsmith's artistry in miniature — hamon patterns and jigane are immediately visible and often strikingly beautiful. Many Hozon tanto are candidates for higher certification, making them compelling acquisitions.
