roger dundas Posted October 4, 2020 Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 Is there any point in me saying this ? I think Alex that your tsuba are just excellent but that is all I can do unfortunately. They really appeal. Good luck. Roger j. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babu Posted October 4, 2020 Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 Forgive me no 2 your showing a similar tsuba in a book, slightly better executed with a completely different seal as the same maker. Can you confirm that the seal used on yours is also connected to that artist as the mei looks different as well. If you can then I'm interested in the tsuba.
