Ray Singer Posted December 24, 2015 Report Share Posted December 24, 2015 The new owner of the koshirae below is looking for a kozuka and kogai to match the fuchi, tsuba and kojiri. This is a relatively common theme and I don't imagine that it will be difficult (or expensive) to locate matching fittings. Would anyone recall kozuka and/or kogai in this style available for sale?

jason_mazzy Posted December 25, 2015 Report Share Posted December 25, 2015 dang, I have seen several matching kozuka and kougai sell on ebay lately. Look at past sales, sometimes I have had luck with the new purchaser selling to me for an extra $10 or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Singer Posted December 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2015 Thanks Jason, appreciate the heads up. I know this motif was mass produced, so hopefully another set will turn up if tracking down past eBay sales does not pan out.

jason_mazzy Posted December 26, 2015 Report Share Posted December 26, 2015 is that the hamdashi koshirae you were just selling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Singer Posted December 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2015 Hi Jason, yes it is the hamidashi koshirae. I accepted a trade for the another piece I had consigned. He asked my help to locate the additional missing tosogu. If you happen to locate those eBay links please send them over. I was not able to find the past auctions.
