  1. Seller listed diameter at 4.5 cm. Howard Dennis
  2. Jake and Piers, Thanks for your responses. Any guess as to what the back depicts? Howard Dennis
  3. Jake, Thank you so much for this response. It's a direction I didn't even think of. Will enjoy more research thanks to you. Howard Dennis
  4. Just bought this netsuke and would appreciate thought on what it depicts. It was listed as a dragon face but I wonder could it be an Oni? Thanks for any responses. Howard Dennis
  5. Jean, thanks so much for suggesting and moving this here. Howard Dennis
  6. Does anyone know where I might purchase an Edo period yanone like this for the number 7 spot in my display? Thanks, Howard Dennis
  7. Spartancrest, Thank You for the assistance. Howard Dennis
  8. Bazza, Thank You for the assistance. Howard Dennis
  9. Newly acquired tsuka that I would like to learn who made them, school and time period if possible. Also is the effect on surface behind Shoki called nanako or is it some other name? Thanks for any assistance, Howard Dennis
  10. Thanks PhoenixDude, I liked it as well for that reason. Howard Dennis
  11. Would like to know what historical event this tsuba depicts and what school and time period it is from. Thank You, Howard Dennis
  12. COD, Thank You for the assistance. Howard Dennis
  13. Acquired a few items at 2024 Orlando Show and would love to know what the mei says and anything about subject and school and time period if possible? Thanks for any help, Howard Dennis
  14. Thank You Geraint & Rokujuro, You have confirmed what I first thought and I think I'll pass on this one. It was just the right size for the number 7 slot on my new display and the size matched the number 9 very closely and that was why I was considering it. Howard Dennis
  15. Been offered this yanone but have never seen this style before. Can anyone verify this is an authentic shape or style that would have been used by a Japanese archer? Thanks, Howard Dennis
  16. My latest one is 70mm in length 64mm in width 5mm thick Howard Dennis
  17. Bugyotsuji, is this image any better and does it say Kanenori as I was told ages ago? Thanks, Howard Dennis
  18. I'm storing your images as these 3 are the only ones I've ever seen and yours and my newest one are very recent finds. If you ever find out any more about the theme or anything else Please let me know. Howard Dennis
  19. Thanks for posting yours, it's great to see a third one. Yours looks very thick and heavy, is it katana size? My mounted one is thin but the newest one is thicker and probably meant for a katana. One concern on yours, is that red rust on the upper right lobe? If so it should be addressed. Howard Dennis
  20. The Tsuba on the left I've had for decades. The one on the right I just acquired. Howard Dennis
  21. Have owned tsuba on the left for years but just acquired the one on the right. Anyone have any thoughts as to how close they may be in age to each other? Thanks in advance, Howard Dennis
  22. Thank You, So just the school name and no smith? Howard Dennis
  23. Just put these two tsuba together. The lefthand one I've had for years and was told it reads Shoami Kanenori. The one on the right I just acquired and don't know what it says. Thanks for any help, Howard Dennis
