Well this is my first entry into Tsuba collecting and 1st post on the board. I am far away from owning a Nihonto katana so I am starting small :)A large iron late Edo (Mito Shoami circa 1750) octagonal tsuba of a dragon in the rain over stormy seas done in takazogan, takabori, and keibori. 8.16 cm x 7.67 cm x 3.8 mm. Purchased from Nihonto.US
