Surprisingly good quality, minor issues
The blade shipped pretty fast in a tightly taped box. The tanto itself is surprisingly sharp out of the box and in fine quality for a scratch and dent sale. Looks great, cuts nice, probably just needs some touching up with sharpening. Only real issue is that the blade is covered in some slightly sticky substance (i believe from the scabbard), so I'll have to figure what that's about and how to clean it. Otherwise great value for $50!

SCRATCH AND DENT DOJO PRO 1060 STEEL TANTO #5
I may buy more scratch/dent sale items. I went over this Tanto and can't find a single thing wrong with it. I love the blade geometry changes from the #4 which I have and like but this is a much better feel in the hand. Very sharp out of the customary double boxing it was sent in. Nice tight fittings and its is nice and tight . Some wandering of the diamonds but overall an outstanding value.

Tanto #5
It's a pretty nice blade! Mine was a scratch and dent version so it had a few tiny defects. Overall nice little sword!

S&D tanto #5
Only things wrong I could find were a nick in the habaki and the ito is a little loose. Other than that was very happy overall. Def worth the money imo.

Excellent!
I can't say what the "scratch" or "dent" is on my new Tanto, but I'm incredibly happy with my purchase. It came sharp, but like "dull kitchen knife" sharp, so it'll need to be honed before doing some chopping!

SCRATCH AND DENT DOJO PRO 1060 STEEL TANTO #5
This tanto looks and feels great. I'm guessing the tiny spot of rust on the blade is the "scratch and dent" part, but it was so small it took a good blade cleaning to find.

1060 tanto scratch and dent.
Great shape was expecting worse. All I had to do was touch up the edge a bit. It will cut through a 2" mail tube like it's butter. I ordered this to see the quality. I'll be ordering a ko katana next. Good job guys.
