Hello all,

Could anyone with more knowledge than me on tsuba types and history (which is just about everyone) help me with this tanto tsuba. 

I'm assuming it's from the mid to late edo period based on the inlay work but the no nonsense construction says early edo or slightly earlier. It's well constructed sitting perfectly without and rattle when seated. It measures 5cm x 3.3cm. Some of you have probably seem it on ebay. I liked the design of it and needed it for a project I'm working on but I want to learn more about it. 

 

Thanks for forgiving my ignorance 🫠
