Wow! What school is this? Is that a tachi? And what's inside?  

Kaga Zogan I believe..it's a tachi. There is a tsunagi inside. (I know what you meant but this is not a sword discussion)

Does your koshirae have the tsuba?   https://www.jauce.com/auction/g1091518766  A nice set of fittings.

I do but a plain one. Koshirae has toku so replacing anything wouldn't be right.

If you don't mind I have a question to ask. Is this a quality koshirea? Other Tachi koshirea I've been seeing have more orange and gold..what makes this one special? Do you know how old it is? Leather wrap looks old and damaged.

Is it expensive if you want to buy it alone without the blade?
