  10. Need some help with this tsuba. Having a hard time nailing down the school, region, and era for this tsuba. Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/272332885580
  11. Yes. Your former blade. I have 3 tsuba options for it.
  12. Just wondering if naginata were ever body tested and signed like swords and how common was it compared to swords. Thanks, Mike

  14. Since I am trying to mount it on a Shinsakuto without making it look like a dwarfs head on Arnold Schwarzenegger's body, I think I need something bigger than what is available from the antique pool.
  15. The whole set up is awesome. Definitely a keeper set.
  16. Roman says he can do it. I need them shinsakuto size, so about 42mm or so with a 33mm nakago ana.
