    Naginata 2

    kissakai posted a topic in Nihonto

    I didn't want to high jack the excellent naginata post already 'running' Looking through the last post, does this look like a Nanbokuchō naginata or Edo?

    Hi Luca Have you thought about doing the same for Namban tsuba? I've read an English book on Namban tsuba that I'd happily give away as it was that bad If Namban tsuba are researched as well as the Shigen tsuba it would surprise a lot of collectors

    Is this available as a download in it's entirety?
  9. kissakai
    May not to my collecting style but this looks like a great deal Shouldn't be here for very long

    Hi Luca So many Shingen tsuba were I never seen so many variations - thanks for the great reference Don't know if it has been asked before but I'd like to see other Shingen tsuba apart from the plain weave we usually see. I have one or two that are unusual that I post tomorrow

    Just what I thought. I much prefer a no hitsuana tsuba for a naginata
  12. kissakai
    My naginata had two hitsuana and I wondered why they were there as they serve no pupose

    Lights look to be out of stock

    Any mention of the period?

    Differing 'crafts' and lucky symbols?

    A very good buy and you are correct with the details I really liked the sharp carving of the plant leaves

    I think this may be a plum rather than a chrysanthemum I wonder what the bar underneath means. Could be a ruler as this is usually shown as a straight bar This is all I have as it is in the post from Japan
