1tallsword Posted June 25, 2014 Report Posted June 25, 2014 these are three tsubas i have had for a little while. I have been doing a little studying on these and have come up with... the one on the far left is manban style. the middle one is akaska or owarti style i believe. the far right i have no clue :lol: it does have a mei, i have a feeling the one on the right is a reproduction, middle one seems good the far left im on the fence i believe the middle tsuba is akaska and edo period. I would really like some opinions here on these and any help is much respected, thank you very much, Jeremy scott. Quote
Grey Doffin Posted June 26, 2014 Report Posted June 26, 2014 The one on the left is definitely Namban and quite nice. The middle tsuba doesn't do much for me whatever it is. On the right is a Jakushi and possibly the best of the lot. But what do I know? Grey Quote
Peter Bleed Posted June 26, 2014 Report Posted June 26, 2014 I agree with Grey - it was a Grey't assessment. The Jakushi guard is nice with lots of the good original Nunome. Nice. peter Quote
Soshin Posted June 26, 2014 Report Posted June 26, 2014 Hi, The middle one looks like a Shōami School tsuba circa middle to late Edo Period. The other tsuba to the left and right has been correctly identifited by others in my opinion. Quote
