    New tsuba

    hoitomt1 posted a topic in Tosogu

    Hi guys, i have som new tsuba i am wanting some info on if you have time😄 They are bought from catawiki and both have copper sekigane. Both are also in iron. Am i right in thinking it is in the sukashi style? Thank you!

    Are there any examples of brass being used as sekigane in tsuba? Would it work or should i use copper

    it was difficult for me to show it good in the pictures, but the all the ten-zogan dots are copper, while the flowerheads appear to be brass or gold. the guard itself is iron

    It seems and feels like to me that someone before me has tried to fit it to a different bigger sword. It is quite small i think 5,8x6 cm

    Showa armor?

    hoitomt1 posted a topic in Katchu

    Hello! I have found this rather cheap dō on ebay, and my research has lead me to believe this is a showa era armor. Do any of you have any info on this armor? And maybe if any of you have seen this kind of armor in person 😄

    I might get them to try to shine them up and display them as decoration

    Thanks bugyotsuji, these are for sale on a norwegian kind of craigslist for 50 dollars. So i cant show any better pictures. But the lames look like solid strips
