TSUBA
For the tsuba collector, the enthusiast
wishing to create a custom sword or the sword owner wishing to
customize an existing sword, Hanwei has created a line of katana
tsuba replicating renowned pieces from museum collections. Each
piece is authentically crafted in iron with gold detailing and
has an antique finish that makes it difficult to differentiate
from museum-conserved originals. Some minor fitting work may be
necessary to adapt these tsuba to individual katana tangs but
this can be easily accomplished. We have shown the individual
weights for sword balancing purposes. Each tsuba is supplied in
a fitted wooden case that is in itself an attractive means of
display, but for the collector wishing to feature his tsuba
collection formally we have six(OH2133), eight(OH2134) and
twelve(OH2135) piece displays available. Framed in oak, each
compartment has a built-in tsuba support which allows easy
retrieval of an individual piece for examination.
Each Tsuba is $45.00
