Thank you Steve ... As Brian mentioned it, it is not an easy one.....
-
Thank you so much Moriyama San. This Hakogaki does not bring much information by itself but brings more value to this fuchi kashira due to Kanzan Sato's expertise.
-
I am so sorry not to be able to read them... Thank you for your help
-
I nee help for this Hakogaki translation, please.
-
Chris, really you had an eagle eye to purchase this tsuba. Final result is amazing!
-
Hi , I have deciphered this signature as Masachika (Haynes 03864.0). Can someone confirm that my translation is correct ? Thank you Bruno
-
HI Steve, once decyphered, it looks quite obvious. Thank you so much for your help.

Thank you Pete for being so patient with me and "invention" was a little bit provocative as I did not find any literature on this school but Haynes. All exemple I found on the web sites mentioned Haruta without ECHIZEN (only found one in Aoi art website but not at all in mine style). That's why I come as as a conclusion that this school is pretty unknown .
-
Despite Axel and Pete help and after going through my books and Internet researches, I still do not have information on Echizen Haruta school. Is it really a school? My conclusion: It is a pure invention from the Fitting Museum, end of 20th century...

Hi Dale , I purchased this tsuba 13 years ago..... directly in Japan to a dealer in Tokyo. Funny to discover the same tsuba on this specific site.... but yes, it is the same.....and i bought it without stickers..... . PS. The price was less than 1/3 of the amount published in the site
-
Very interesting thread as I didn't how to classify this tsuba of my collection.
-
Hi, I have this tsuba with NTB certificate stating it's an Echizen Haruta school representative. I have no information on that school but it's an armorer family. Can you provide more information on this school ? Thank you Bruno
-
I am impressed by all these finds. Thank you Bazza!
-
Thanks to Sebastien, I go this exemple from the Compton Collection which is excellent in skills and feeling.
-
Ken , do you have pictures of these Tsuba?
-
Hi , I would like to know if you have mokume gane tosogu in your collections. I have just purchased a kozuka made with this design of mixed metals. Is it rare as I do not see so many tsuba and kozuka made under this technic? Thank you Bruno
-
I have seen these marks inside a Fuchi Kashira. What do these kanji stand for ? Is it a mark of a copiest?
-
and in addition, a cross on a kojiri at the bottom of the saya, risking to touch the soil(purity/impurity) does not make sense.
-
Thank you Ken. I corrected my post. I read that Goto Denjo might have signed mitsuhiro but I have no clue of it.
-
Hi my Tosogu friends experts. I have a kozuka signed Goto Mitsuhiro and found a similar signature in the Kinko Meikan (page 494). Do you have information on who was this Goto family member? Thank you Bruno
-
Can I suggest 'Mito school' (I've been wrong before) ?
Kurikata replied to roger dundas's topic in Tosogu
or shoami.... But nice one anayway. -
Nice work and patina would have to be restored imho
-
Thanks Thomas. There are so many different opinions from high valued experts in this forum that the only solution will consist in having NBTHK validation. I do not pretend NBTHK knows more than NMB members but the certificate is generally considered as a strong clue.
