    https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/g439924880 The blade looks nothing like Muramasa, better study the sword first and then the papers
  2. Manuel Coden
    it seems 石井和天 Ishii Kazuten(?). It is a really suspicious nakago, can you show the blade?
  3. Manuel Coden
    The Kaga blade is probably a "Kaga no Kami Fujiwara Morimichi"

    on the right is Kamakura, on the left looks like 八 , 三分 which should be a measure (2.5 cm) but doesn't make much sense for a tsuba Unless he meant 8.3 cm but used 分 instead of "Cm"

    Great piece, I think early Muromachi as well
  15. Manuel Coden
    Ko katchushi tsuba, early Muromachi
  16. Manuel Coden
    I think it's Morimichi
  17. Manuel Coden
    “Musashi no Kami Fujiwara (Morimichi?)” 武蔵守藤原(盛道?) can you take a clearer picture of last 2 kanji? Looks like an Edo period blade btw

    I well remember your passion for nihonto and especially for sake In the same spirit i add my calligraphy from Yamoka Tesshu which can be readed as "Studying having fun is a god-like thing"

    Actually my idea was to put a 4th sheet with the description of the scene, but i never went through with it
  21. Manuel Coden
    i found the exact copy here https://www.toshidama-Japanese-prints.com/item_583/Yoshitaki-Kanadehon-Chushingura-Act-VII--Okaru.htm?fbclid=IwAR3bMjjYjkGPQIQ0g8iMQDVwWGwlJe1njPQynXNQfMc-OPWiqTWxrh20ZQ4 I guess it was It says "They were originally designed to go in an album, the third upper sheet intended to open upwards."

    Utagawa Yoshitaki (ca 1841 - 1899) Okaru (played by Ichikawa Sadanji) in the Kanadehon Chushingura Act VII: Paper and the Moon, 1870. Three Chuban Sheets. Unusual L-shaped tryptic

    The reason the artist made so complicated inlay is the same reason you like it...cause it looks cool These works are probably datable at the end of Muromachi period or very beginning of Edo period. As Gray said these are incline to suffer zogan loss cause the corrosion push out the wire or let them loose (wires are locked in position by the iron around them). Actually a friend of mine has one, i suggested him to sell it to you but he doesn't seem much incline to

    I just searched the topic on the forum and copied the link to the original picture I saw tsuba with this pattern before, but among the "heianjo" are quite rare, i guess you need to be lucky or very patient to find one
  25. Manuel Coden
    i guess you meant this one?
