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

You have some very fine examples of schools there

[Brano]

Thank you very much for your help Kyle

Could no. 13 perhaps be a SAN MAI TSUBA ?

[kyushukairu]

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?

The Tsuba construction is exactly as you would expect
Between two thin layers of shakudo is a copper core
