    I am looking for a rather plain copper kozuka with or without the kogatana. The fittings are below and show the colour that I need.

    Making a proper Saya is difficult process. John Terado or Brian Tschernaga both in the USA di e excellent work.

    Hi Ron I do not think that the f/k was made by either Omori or Mito smiths.

    Yes! Buy books! First sword and first sword book were bought in 1976. Every year I buy more books. In 2023 I bought 5 or 6. I look forward to buying more in 2024.

    Ko uda Smith list.

    Norishige was not a Ko Uda smith. He was a Soshu smith who lived in Etchu.

    I think that the resolution of the electron microscope will be too high for you to get much relevant information. The most that I use is about 40X magnification and this is just to look at small areas of interest.

    Thanks, Peter! I passed the essence of the article on to several friends who practice Tai Chi as it fits so well.

    Thank you Bob for providing this wonderful thread. I look forward to seeing your new acquisitions. This thread needs to be pinned as it is a wonderful resource. George and Ford have made great contributions to the thread. The pieces that you have shared with us set a high level for collectors to reach for.

    I really enjoyed the Florida Token Kai group. I was a member for years even though I live in Canada. They ran a great sword show in Tampa in February. I enjoyed their publications too. The last time that I saw Troy he was in a wheelchair and attending the show. I miss that group and their show too.

    I like the ginkgo leaves too. I agree that there are two handles.

    My first thought is that someone drilled holes in an okimono. I agree the large hole on the bottom does not work. well.

    Let's all write good things about Robert Hughes. I'll start, Robert organized a cruise and dinner in Tokyo Bay during DTI. It was one of the highlights from my trip to Japan. Thanks once again. I could go on... Step up and share your thoughts.
