Both Japanese John Lee Ten Kei Aikuchi. The term "ten kei" can be translated as "gift from heaven" and is a symbol of the beauty of nature. This inspired delicate flower patterns on the handmade accessories that are refined with gold and silver. The blade is handmade in the elaborate konbuse style. The hard shell is made from 1095 carbon steel and the core consists of softer low carbon steel. Like its predecessors, this tanto combines grace and utility in a unique way. A differential heat treatment creates a 60 HCR edge and a 40 HRC blade back. The difference can be seen in a delicately shaped, royal hamon line. Characteristic:
- Shinogi Zukuri style blade with a fuller blade.
- Kobuse style blade construction
- Aikuchi style, traditionally no tsuba
- Hineri maki style mango wrapper, covered with ray skin
- Mirror-polished black blade (kuroro style) with buffalo horn fittings (kojiri, kurigata, koiguchi).
- Shovel collar (habaki) and washers (Seppa) made of brass.
- It has a long spike that is attached to the handle with two bamboo pegs (mekugi). The sword is removable.
- All the decoration (Fuchi, Menuki, Kashira) is handmade in metal which gives each sword its unique touch.
- Delivered in a wooden box.
- Each original John Lee sword is delivered with a seal and a certificate.
