sohei Posted November 24, 2013 Report Posted November 24, 2013 Last night Ron and I were discussing how hard it is to find a single KAO in the texts we have. Both of us have paged through the books we have and could not find these KAO. Any help from the board would be much appreciated. Mine is from a shakudo kozuka. Ron's is from a kinko tsuba: Thanks, Mike Quote
Bazza Posted November 25, 2013 Report Posted November 25, 2013 I'm close to 100% sure that Ron's KAO is the early work of Shodai Yasuchika. I'm tied up at present but I'll look into this further in the next day or two and come back with images of my own, both a piece and a book reference (God, I'm in chaos...). Bestests, BaZZa. Quote
sohei Posted November 25, 2013 Author Report Posted November 25, 2013 Thanks! Please let me know what reference books you use. Mike Quote
Bugyotsuji Posted November 25, 2013 Report Posted November 25, 2013 KOZUKA 100, Claude THUAULT Collection, has many examples of Kao in it. (If this is too obvious, please ignore.) Quote
sohei Posted November 25, 2013 Author Report Posted November 25, 2013 So obvious I didn't check this one! Thanks for the suggestion Pier! Was concentrating on the Japanese ones, I will check tonight. Mike Quote
