Leonard Posted May 11, 2011 Report Posted May 11, 2011 Thank you for your time, This tsuba is from a katana that was brought back from WWII by my father. It measures 6.35cm wide, 6.98cm tall, and .476 thickness. Any help understanding it's possible origin and it's theme would be greatly appreciated. I am new to this, and have looked at a thousand photos of tsuba attempting to find a match, have not been able to do so. Leonard Quote
