Please help with tsuba i.d.

[dhusker]

I am thinking of buying this tsuba. I believe the design is Plum and Plum flower. What period do you attribute it to and any idea of the value?

size matters............

if wak size, 125.00

katana size ( > 8cm ), 225 to 275.

Deflationary pressure is still with us

Milts costings sounds fair. I would call that a fairly generic Edo period Tosho tsuba.

:lol:

Exactly what I was going to say. Meaning it is nothing too special. Maybe even $100 on a good day (looks waki to me)

No shortage of these, with various motifs. Unless you are getting it dirt cheap, I think it is worth saving a bit more and getting something a bit more unusual or interesting. Just my 2c

Looks to me like it might possibly be an unsigned Tadatsugu. Any thoughts?
