charlie1 Posted June 17, 2016 Report Posted June 17, 2016 Width 2.675 in Thickness .285 in Found this tsuba for very little money today. A decent amount of dirt and rust on this one. I know its a iron wakizashi tsuba and that's about all. Just looking for some more information. Thanks for the help!!! Cheers, Charlie Quote
b.hennick Posted June 17, 2016 Report Posted June 17, 2016 Looks to be a poorly cast piece. Run don't walk away from it. 1 Quote
Spartancrest Posted July 14, 2016 Report Posted July 14, 2016 These are very common castings, the one you are looking at in fact more worn out than most, some had touches of gold overlay, and fine details - - depends how much izarae (Lit. to clear a cast piece) was done after casting. These attachment pictures are other examples, in fact the large detailed example is one I got cheap nearly 30 years ago, I would not buy it now! Dale from Tassie Quote
