Wigsplitter

Thank you Grey. I am yet to put any significant money down for a Tsuba, I paid $70 for #1 and $30 each for the others. I considered it a good chance to get familiar with different Tsuba styles. I have some books on the way, The ones I currently have only talk about Tsuba's in a very general sense. I needed some that are specifically focused on Tsuba's. Matt

Hello, My name is Matt and I have aquired 5 Tsubas and was hoping for help identidying age and any maker info. I am just starting out in collecting Tsubas. I know a few of these are fairly rough, but still antique pieces. Thank you far any help you may have #1 53.25mm x 45.32mm & 4,15mm thick #2 70.56mm across & 4.18 thick #3 67.78mm across & 3.57mm thick. #4 55.58mm x 51.44 & 3.91mm thick (almost looks cast, not sure if its authentic) #5 60.67mm across & 3.49mm thick

Thank you, My name is Matt. I realized after taking photos I never did take a full shot. I will take better photos of the items you mentioned.

Hello, I am new to this forum and want to say thank you in advance for an help. I have a sword I would like some help finding info on. I have posted a link to a Photo bucket album with picture (ignore the first two, they are a NCO). I hope post links are ok. I also have some Tsuba's i will post on the fittings page. the sword does have a small fracture in the blade. Thank you. http://s49.photobucket.com/user/A2vento88/library/Sword?sort=3&page=1
