Bungo Posted December 20, 2008 Report Posted December 20, 2008 looks like wisteria design............ too bad they " spilled " the gold paint just kidding.......... other than the " spill ", it's quite nice. Late edo, waki-Goto school ? Doesn't look like Yokohama dock special to me............ milt Quote
docliss Posted December 20, 2008 Report Posted December 20, 2008 I agree with Milt - it is an attractive tsuba. The nanako is good and, unusually, it extends onto the mimi. But I am a little concerned about the brown coloration of the seppa-dai and the round punch marks around the nakago-hitsu, since these usually signal Nagoya-mono to me. John L. Quote
