Inspired by the clean geometry and purposeful lines of the traditional Japanese tanto, the Bushido series delivers a compact fixed-blade platform built for precision, fast handling, and unmistakable custom character. Designed for craftsmen who appreciate lean profiles and strong point geometry, the Bushido combines everyday carry practicality with a refined tactical aesthetic that stands out the moment it is finished.
Every Bushido features a hollow-ground tanto blade profile scaled for comfortable carry and responsive control. With a 3 inch blade and a compact 7.31 inch overall length, it feels fast in the hand while maintaining enough blade presence for utility work, collection display, or defensive-style carry.
This is the USA Damascus configuration, forged from 416 layers of premium carbon steels folded five times to produce bold contrast patterns that elevate the Bushido into a true collector-grade custom project while still delivering dependable cutting performance. Each blade arrives heat treated to 59-61 RC, hollow-ground, and ready for customization.
Each Bushido platform includes three 0.156 inch tang holes and stainless steel pinstock for secure handle construction, while still allowing easy modification for threaded fasteners or custom hardware. Choose a blade-only kit for full creative freedom, or a complete DIY package with premium hardwood handle scales, including Bubinga, Canarywood, Curly Maple, Lacewood, Mahogany, Purpleheart, Walnut, and Yellowheart.
Whether finished as a sleek tactical-style carry knife, a compact utility tanto, or a display-worthy Damascus build, the Bushido rewards careful craftsmanship and carries with confidence.
