Thank you for viewing. This is an Owari tsuba (sword guard). ♦Size♦ Length: Approximately 8.0cm Width: Approximately 8.0cm Seppa-dai (blade collar platform) thickness: Approximately 0.35cm Mimi (rim) thickness: Approximately 0.45cm Weight: Approximately 85g Material: Iron (Please forgive any errors as this is amateur measurement) This tsuba has a size and design typical of Owari, being almost perfectly circular. Although difficult to see in the images, there is a steel bone at the 1 o'clock position on the front, and the jitetsu (surface steel) is black and glossy, like tanned leather. The sound is not "ching" but rather the dry, clear resonance characteristic of old tsuba. The inner circle features a bamboo joint design, and the meat placement is concave, becoming thicker towards the mimi. ※Please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned about minor details, as this item has been stored at home.
