Best Peter Well - Peter, honestly - you're putting me in a bind As I said, my area of interest is blades I'd hate to write nonsense, as my knowledge of Tosogu is very limited Quote

Brano Posted November 21 Author Report Posted November 21 Thank you very much for your help Kyle Quote
ROKUJURO Posted November 21 Report Posted November 21 Could no. 13 perhaps be a SAN MAI TSUBA ? Quote
kyushukairu Posted November 22 Report Posted November 22 You're very welcome, Brano! Jean, I'd wager no 13 is indeed san-mai. Brano, if you look in the nakago-ana is there a copper core sandwiched between two shakudo plates? Quote

Brano, if you look in the nakago-ana is there a copper core sandwiched between two shakudo plates? The Tsuba construction is exactly as you would expect Between two thin layers of shakudo is a copper core Quote
