Metal Tanto with Scabbard

[shep]

Hi all

I remember from the old forum someone posted a link where metal tanto's with scabbard were/are for sale at a reasonable price. Without trawling through AK again, does it ring any bells with anyone? Im on the lookout for one.

Hi Shep,

I remember the thread.

Gordon (I think) was looking for a tanto with a natural wood saya.

I have one, but it was a gift from a Japanese instructor who stayed with me. I have tried to find a UK / net supplier but cannot.

Quentin Balls Nine Circles have a few but they are still quite pricey.

Hi Gary

Thanks for that, I have seen them for £60 but I'm sure I've seen them cheaper than that somewhere.
