Nobody Posted May 9 Report Posted May 9 The item at the bottom of the tsuba looks to be 竹蛇籠 (takejakago) – gabion. 6 Quote
Dogditcher Posted May 10 Author Report Posted May 10 Thank you -Interesting that this would be a focal point on Tsuba "Takejakago" (竹蛇籠) translates to "bamboo snake basket" in English and refers to a traditional Japanese flood control structure used for erosion control and water management in rivers.
