Ashi and Haikan


Recommended Posts

Thought I'd post these photos of some ashi (civil) and kakihan (military), mostly made for wooden saya with leather cover.  They're owned (and for sale) by Dan Watson of Crimson Mist Militaria, located in Australia.  His website is down until close to the end of June.  There might be some guys looking for items like this.  If so, you can email him at crimsonmistATbigpondDOTcom.  I have no skin-in-the-game, just thought someone might want to know.

 

It's also interesting from a collector's perspective, I think, to see the many variations in how these things were made.
