Aux MFG Coffin Tanto Slipjoint
€179.00*
The Tanto blade has its roots in Japanese swordsmithing – originally designed as a short weapon for the Samurai, its geometry still lives on today. The characteristic straight edge, the abrupt transition to the tip, and the flat grind make it one of the most distinctive blade shapes ever created. Auxiliary Mfg has brought exactly that shape to life in M390 steel – sharp, long-lasting, and unmistakable.
Paired with a Coffin-style handle made from milled titanium. The Coffin shape – named after its coffin-like outline – is one of the oldest classic handle designs in knifemaking and has lost none of its fascination over the years. Milled from titanium and enhanced with thoughtfully designed machining for extra grip, it gets a modern update here while still respecting the traditional form.
As a slipjoint without a locking blade, it is §42a-compliant and legal to carry in most public places in Germany. The clip can be switched to either side for both right- and left-handed users.

Warning / Safety Notice:
Risk of cuts: The most common hazard when using knives is the risk of cuts. Sharp blades can easily penetrate skin and tissue.
Blade slippage: Improper handling or applying excessive force may cause the knife to slip, leading to uncontrolled movements and potential injury.
Injuries from falling knives: Knives should never be left unsecured or placed near the edge of tables or work surfaces, as they may fall and cause injury.
Dull blades: Dull knives pose a higher risk of injury, as they require more force and are more likely to slip. Knives should therefore be sharpened regularly and properly.
Improper use: Using a knife for purposes other than its intended use (e.g. as a prying tool) can damage the blade and may result in accidents.
