This early 2016 made Tendick 7" Ronin custom Tanto is like the little brother to my Tendick Ronin Wakizashi which I sold on here back in late May. Time for this one to go to a new collector: $1250 $1200 $1150 $1000 FIRM. No trades.

Domestic payment options: Venmo (F&F set to private) or Zelle.
PayPal is no longer accepted as it does not allow me F&F (business account). International buyers using proxy U.S. addresses are fine but I will not accept PayPal so must pay by Venmo.

Description: 7" CPM-3V blade steel with Ben's own specialized HT. Hammered copper seppa and menuki, the guard is anodized Ti. The sheath is a Hartsfield style Aluminum saya wrapped in shark skin, including an anodized Ti bead for the static sageo. Handle is black Tsuka Ito.

Condition:
never been used or carried. Safe queen collection blade. Edge is original, untouched and undamaged. Any minor marks (I don't see any) are tooling marks from the manufacturing process!

STATS: Overall length is ~ 12.25" and cutting edge length of ~ 6", stock thickness at the ricasso is ~ .3. Blade height is ~ 1.375" and this Tanto weighs 14.9. oz, 18.9 oz with saya.

- UPS Ground or 2nd Day Air shipping is included.
- Domestic U.S shipping only. Intl. proxy U.S addy is OK.
- Payment is required within an hour of agreeing on a deal.
- The knife pictured is exactly what the buyer will be receiving.
- Photos are also part of the description, so if in doubt ask for more.
- Must be at least 18 YO and know your own local knife ownership laws.
- My sale, my rules. Prefer dealing with established paying members. I will honor time stamp either by a claim in here or by DM.

Sadly seems like Ben's work is not getting a lot of love in the secondary market these days!

I'll let this go for $1000 firm all in, F&F and that is all folks. Thanks.
