Vermithrax16 Posted August 27, 2022 Report Posted August 27, 2022 New tsuba by Hamano Masanobu. 4th gen mainline master. Purchased with confidence from an NMB member. Work of iron with soft metal accents. Cicada featured on a tree with the most visceral tree bark I have seen in some time. Excellent carving in iron. I have a new phone and it's camera is far less than my previous one, so still figuring it out. 3 5 Quote
roger dundas Posted August 27, 2022 Report Posted August 27, 2022 A really lovely design and the the work itself is particularly well done for mine. Love it.. Just a thought Jeremiah - would you want to send it over here, to me ? I would look after it. Roger j Quote

Spartancrest Posted October 15, 2022 Report Posted October 15, 2022 Late post, it took me a while to find the image. Nowhere near as nice as the Hamano but the same design by a less skilful maker. [The cicada could do with a diet!] 1 Quote
