What Is The Theme Of These Menuki Supposed To Mean?
Kurikata replied to Heringsdorf's topic in Tosogu
I would love to get these menuki to fit with a tsuba of mine.....

Would you consider this one as a real Namban Christian Tsuba?

One question: The tsuba base is wood ? Iron, another metal ? The "same" is fixed with glue? Anyway beautifull and very rare tsuba.....

John, I am not a "clock" specialist but clock gear (escapement) are "one direction". I really continue to think that your tsuba is an "Escpament" interpretation. But as usual I might be wrong and you are probably in the right direction with the Oak leaf

This katana has been sold 2875 euros (2300 euro hammer price) last friday.

Hi John, looks like a Tokei (Clock gear) Tsuba to me (http://www.ksky.ne.jp/~sumie99/Owari3.html). It is a design used quite frequently by Owari school. Cheers

Hi, I have a tsuba in my collection for quite a long time and discovered it in this site: http://www.city.yokohama.lg.jp/kyoiku/topics/170909.html Can someone translate the tsuba description? ( I do not read Japanese)? By the way,the tsuba is signed Sashu Ju Toshi Sada Thank you

Jamie, it is not a Japanese sword but a chinese replica. regards
-
Thank you Steve. You confirm my initial views on this tsuba......

I just bought this tsuba signed Yamakichibei. Having it in hands , it looks like being late Edo. I have lot of questions about it: - Are the rectangular histu ana a kantei point for this school ? - What are the sukashi design (tools ) ? - Does the signature looks legitimate? Thank you in advance on your views.....
