Jiro49 Posted March 25, 2015 Report Posted March 25, 2015 Just a quick question are tsuba similar to nihonto in regards to size/value? Is a tanto size worth less than a katana size by the same maker? Thanks! Quote
Kronos Posted March 25, 2015 Report Posted March 25, 2015 The short answer would be yes. Katana size tsuba seem to be more desirable to collectors unsurprisingly. Quote
christianmalterre Posted March 25, 2015 Report Posted March 25, 2015 what a nonsense! Size really has got nothing at all to do with value! (least 20 times smaller than a Tachi or Katana from whatever School) definitely but-much more sought for! Christian Quote
Jean Posted March 25, 2015 Report Posted March 25, 2015 Christian, That was not the question. Matt did precize in his post "by the same maker". A katana size Nobuie tsuba is worth much more than a tanto or a wakizashi size tsuba by the same maker. :-) Quote
