Hi Guys

 I have for sale three rather rare and specialist books from my collection.

All three are Japanese  publications with no English translations ( thank goodness for Google translator)

 

1. Traditional Techniques by Suzuki (ISBN 4-8445-853-0)

This is the Japanese precursor to " the Craft of the Japanese sword" by  Kapp and  Yoshihara (which most of you will be familiar with) and there's a mention of this in the final chapter.

However this book has extra sections on Sword History, forging, Saya making and tsukamaki with many old pictures and illustrations not found in the that book.

 

Dust cover is torn but otherwise in very good condition. £50

 

2,Sukashi Tsuba Edited by  Kanichi Kokubo and others,  Kogei Shuppan , Tokyo 1968

As the title suggests this is full of photographs/descriptions of Sukashi Tsuba.   SOLD

 

3. Kaga Kyodo-To ( locally made swords) by Iida Kazuo

Packed with photographs and Oshigata of rarely catalogued swords and smiths,

In very good condition but with markings from adhesive tape on both flyleaves.  SOLD
