TexasMatt Posted October 21, 2021 Report Posted October 21, 2021 Hello. I was looking to put some blades with some wakizashi koshirae i have and was wondering what was available here. I am looking for 2 blades and in the $300-$500 each for good blades. I have wooden blades in the koshirae and trying to get close to what they are. Thank you for looking. Blade 1: 51 cm Nagasa 2.8-3 cm width at habaki Sori 1.1 cm Blade 2: 41.5 cm Nagasa 3.4 cm width at habaki Sori 1 cm Let me know what you have. Thanks again Quote
Alex A Posted October 22, 2021 Report Posted October 22, 2021 Hello, Unless the koshirae is made for a blade, it will scuff and ruin the polish. Best Quote
ChrisW Posted October 22, 2021 Report Posted October 22, 2021 ^This. Not to mention the logistical nightmare of having the tsuka fit snugly. Anything more or less and it will either not fit at all or crack the tsuka. Quote
O koumori Posted October 22, 2021 Report Posted October 22, 2021 ...not to mention the mekugi-ana alignment... Probably the only way you'll even get close is to post dimensioned drawings or pictures of the tsunagi (wooden blades). Dan K Quote
TexasMatt Posted October 24, 2021 Author Report Posted October 24, 2021 Thanks for the tips guys. Ive put more than a few together with very little problems but always look forward to guidance. Here are some measurements for my tsunagi. Quote
