TreasureHunter Posted December 1, 2014 Report Posted December 1, 2014 Found this scabbard at an antique mall, found some similar but not exactly like it, any thoughts on age and use? Measures 24-1/2" Thanks Quote
Brian Posted December 1, 2014 Report Posted December 1, 2014 Could be real, but looks like a Chinese repro to me. Brian Quote
Lee Bray Posted December 1, 2014 Report Posted December 1, 2014 I have a very similar shaped kojiri in iron that is certainly genuine. https://plus.google.com/photos/10838600 ... sGU8vnx4gE I considered it(and the other matching fittings) to be early to mid Edo period but no particular school.

Mark Posted December 1, 2014 Report Posted December 1, 2014 I agree with Brian, hard to be sure from the pictures. If it is genuine it is very late and low quality so not very valuable anyway so no big loss Quote
TreasureHunter Posted December 2, 2014 Author Report Posted December 2, 2014 Thanks, cost was $30 just don't want to mislead anyone on Ebay. Thanks Quote
