Hi all, Wonderful rabbit displays, even one not directly related to swords! 
Thank you all for sharing and the supportive comments. 
Have decided I would sell the Shakado set if there are members interested in this set. 
I believe they are quite old, some of the gold eyes missing but otherwise in good condition 

Brian, if there is interest expressed in these I will repost on the sale section with better pictures and size

Thanks to my local friend Erick (NihontoNewbie) and as always our Stephen for showing me rabbit themed tsuba. I really like them.   Two reside with me currently, and they remind me of something that

Well i like them anyway, no others posting.   Rabbit in moon tale was part of my first family night time stories, also at full moon you can image a rabbit sitting up on his haunches.   one version

Well, since this thread doesn’t seem to be limited to tōsōgu anymore, here are two netsuke of mine:   A: mumei, attributed to Yoshinaga, Kyōto, ca. 1780 B: Saitō Yasufusa, 1975

Stephen - on YJ the seller can set up their account so that they can deny a bid so if they shill bid one too far they can delete it and the previous bid wins.  Nice system, right?  :doubt:

 

PS:  I wish you well on Veterans Day.

Rabbit and Moon themed F/K:

Heavy shouldered rabbit and multi color metal use. Is it signed?

I am curious if it is Shonai work, or more likely Yasuchika line post Shonai.

 

Two shots in the dark, but it is good practice to try to figure things out before looking at a signature.

(*laugh*). Sometimes you miss the dartboard entirely.

No signature Curran, so no help there. I can't place the work either really, it's ok quality but certainly not high end. Main things for me are:

- it's a rabbit motif :)

- large katana size so easily mountable 

- look better in hand than in pictures

Stephen, Question, is this Tsuba old? Appears recent to my eyes, excellent work! Great expression on the Rabbits face. A presentation piece perhaps!? Regardless, I love it. But alas like you, outta my limited budget.

Pictures of the koshirea I assembled for my Katana which is being completed by Randy Black!

 

The Katana is a nice 1655 Musahi Muneharu blade with NBTHK Hozon papers from 2012, the Tsuba is also with papers.  The Kozuka, matches so well it was decided to place it with the mounting.  I hope you enjoy the koshirea pictures.  Once, the katana is back from mounting by Randy I'll post the pics!
