Tantos?

[clearytja]

Does anyone know if the Inkosi tanto is “taller” than the Sebenza tanto? From some angles they look like a different shape.
I have the Sebenza tanto and the Zaan tanto and the Zaan is significantly taller.

Of course I am just looking for an excuse but if the Inkosi tanto is not taller I might lean to the Insingo shape.

thanks,
TC

The Umnumzaan blade is closer to the Inkosi blade, I would guess they’re comparable.
I’ve also got a 21 and Umnumzaan tanto.

So the Inkosi tanto blade is in between the 21 and the Umnumzaan in height?

I don’t have an umnumzaan but I do have an Inkosi and 21 tanto. The Inkosi tanto blade is a touch taller than the 21

The Inkosi is in the back. I’m sure the angle makes it look taller than it really is. It’s not a whole lot but it is taller

Is the tanto tip from factory convex ground or is it a V-edge? Than I know how to sharpen it. Got a Small Inkosi Tanto with micarta inlays on my way
