Yeah I am an idiot and I plan on paying for it if it is not a total fake. Description EDO Antique! "Tsuka" (SAMURAI KATANA Handle) with Carved Dragon, "Botan (Peonies)" Motif Wood & Copper Condition Considering its age, it's in Good Condition. (Refer to the pictures, please.) Comment It is presumed to be made in the latter term of Edo era(1800-1870).

Bid on this on ebay a little on impulse. It is from a Japanese seller Japanese.antiques. The tsuka looks well wrapped but the color on the fuchi and kashira looks a little weird to me. Haven’t paid yet just wanted to know if this looked legit and if anyone has experience with the seller Japanese.antiques. Thanks
