Ken-Hawaii Posted April 8, 2019 Report Posted April 8, 2019 The largest menuki I own are only about 3.8 cm long, so doesn't 10 cm seem a bit large? That's almost half the length of the entire tsuka on the blade I use in iaijutsu! Quote
raynor Posted April 9, 2019 Report Posted April 9, 2019 Dragons like crocodiles grow their whole life. Old dragons! On a serious note, never seen menuki that large, not even out of the crazy shops in China. Quote
Tanto54 Posted April 9, 2019 Report Posted April 9, 2019 Hi Ken, Beautiful menuki. I've seen about a dozen of these long menuki over the past 40 years. The most memorable were sharks (a very rare subject) that were even longer than those dragons. Quote
Blazeaglory Posted April 11, 2019 Report Posted April 11, 2019 Those would look great on a really nice long Ubu nakago Quote
