    Thanks @Iekatsu - The three similar red lacquered ones are all different, however. Circle Mother of Pearl around the MOP checkerboard vs squares, @ortos example is different than the samurai world link as the SW link has a different design at the bottom of the handle. Similar themes like tsuba of certain periods (Peony and butterfly example comes to mind), but perhaps not mass produced? Thanks for your insights....

  19. Hi All. I purchased this FK set a while back from a member on the board. While the original Hozon paperwork was lost, a copy was preserved. I would like to document this as best I can for future caretakers of the piece. Can I ask for a translation? Thanks!
  20. Thanks @Geraint - does seem that the brass overlay is characteristic, regardless of theme!
