I love tanto blades. I own mostly production versions. I recently made a deal for a Cold Steel Imperial Tanto and I love that knife. Who else makes (production or custom) damascus tanto fixed blades in the 5"-7" blade category?

Well, I guess that I'm too narrow minded when it comes to tanto blades. I seem to like the American style tanto better than the traditional. So far I like the Emerson damascus tanto folders, but I'm looking for fixed blades. I can't seem to find a fixed blade with an american style damascus tanto blade and ray skin cord wrapped handles. Surely, they are out there somewhere!

I know Wally Hayes and Steve Corkum both do that type of work. I know there's more I just can't think of them right now.
 
I was looking at my knife table here and found a damascus tanto - actually an 3 1/2" aikuchi - made by Bud Nealy. He grinds them from damascus made by Daryl Meier. He also makes them in the longer length you prefer.
