Bugyotsuji Posted April 1, 2019 Report Posted April 1, 2019 Gwyn. Any type of kachimushi dragonfly tsuba ok? What price range? PM me if necessary. Sorry, just reread your post. Mine is more Mokko than round. Iron, Amida yasuri, two udenuki holes, no side Hitsu Ana. One dragonfly coming over the top edge. Unsigned. Dimensions: 7.7, 7.1, 0.4 cm. 1 Quote
Grey Doffin Posted April 1, 2019 Report Posted April 1, 2019 Hi Gwyn, Don't know if it is smallish enough but I do have this one: http://www.japaneseswordbooksandtsuba.com/store/tsuba-%26-kodogu/h377-higo-jingo-sukashi-tsuba-holbrook Grey Quote
Nickupero Posted April 3, 2019 Report Posted April 3, 2019 Recently got hold of this one, roundish and medium sized. Measures 7.4cm high by 6.9cm wide. Have pictures that are more clear and less pixelated. Feel free to PM me. 1 Quote
Bugyotsuji Posted April 3, 2019 Report Posted April 3, 2019 Might as well post mine then, and make life easier, although Gwyn might not have noticed the answers here. 1 Quote
Ken-Hawaii Posted April 5, 2019 Report Posted April 5, 2019 Gwyn, a tonbo tsuba just showed up on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Tsuba-Japan-Samurai-Dragonfly-iwamoto-ikkan-sign-name-inlay-Katana-Sword-fitting/183762215457 Quote
Moley Posted April 5, 2019 Author Report Posted April 5, 2019 Hi everyone, thanks for your help. I have “customised” a modern tsuba for now by inserting a silver tonbo menuki on it. Will use that one until the right one comes along. Quote
nickm Posted April 8, 2019 Report Posted April 8, 2019 If you haven't seen it a user named nick has a dragonfly tsuba under the for sale section Quote
dominnimod Posted April 10, 2019 Report Posted April 10, 2019 1. is pricey, but you could try to talk to the seller, however i think is more on the big side 2. is subtle, nice momoyama aesthetic Both on ebay 1 Quote
