  1. My doggie tsuba. Not great, but a rememberance of my dog Po - my once in a lifetime dog.
  2. A wonderful example of Nagamitsu at his best. Possibly a special order sword judging from the mounts. Classic Bizen hamon. Lucky you - I'm so jealous. Rich
  3. Don't trust AI. It will lead you down the garden path to ????
  4. If you want info on Chinese swords try here; http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/forumdisplay.php?f=2 Need to register, but free and very, very good academic site. Rich
  5. It isn't me I'd love to get a nice cat tsuba. One have 1 with a tiger (already posted somewhere). Ridge can be fierce, but he's not up to tiger status.

    Scary Tsuba

    Dale It does look a bit melted.Have you checked it with a Geiger counter?
  7. Yes, Ridge needs the armor - we have very mean mice.
  8. Wow! Custom cat armor. I'll have to get a suit for Ridge.
  9. Barry Most mekugi nuki I've seen are either bamboo or brass (both softer the steel). I was wondering if yours made of steel might scratch the mekgui ana or the sword nakago? Neat idea if safe to use.

    My tsuba

    Matthew He means the physical orientation of the tsuba. They are normally shown the way they would be mounted on the sword (the "V" should be pointing up. Not a big deal, just the normal way of doing it. Welcome to NMB, Rich
