Greeting to you all, I am looking for your opinions on these two tsuba I have. Some have seen these. Thank you

Measurements for #1: 67x63mm, very thick, dark color

Measurements for #2: 65x60mm, thin, chocolate colorIMG_2001.thumb.jpeg.e9c292ff6c7ea262e13230b276281678.jpegIMG_2002.thumb.jpeg.464a6cc5325264b1e7d4b2df7ad00d07.jpegIMG_2003.thumb.jpeg.ca5b7b4ac39cd30a2a991532a6f969dd.jpegIMG_2011.thumb.png.c53d9c3635f06eaf4346c8b4a277d1e2.pngIMG_2010.thumb.jpeg.4f274b36939162198a1b34c818c09601.jpeg

Ron,

the first TSUBA reminds me of TACHIBANA TSUBA, the second is difficult, as it could be KO-NARA or a later attempt to replicate this style. It is also possible that an old TSUBA plate was later embellished wird some decoration.

From page 110 Tsuba Kanshoki by Torigoe Kazutaro    Shonaishoami?  :dunno:
