Tsuba

Recommended Posts

Here is a pair of tsuba, gaurds or hilts used on Japanese style wooden swords for martial arts training. Typically these days people use plastic ones, or tsuba made from a single thickness of really thick water buffalo rawhide (hard to find)

I like these a lot.

How much are you selling them for, and have you thought about other themes?

I would like a set of bamboo (katana) if it's possible...and maybe even one for my tanto though it is home made so sizes could be tricky.

I have done all sorts of different themes with tooling, stamping and embossing. Send me an email blaneb at verizon.net (use the usual @-I used the at because I am hoping to avoid spam) and we can discuss the particulars. I can do one for a tanto if you can send me a cross section so I know how big to make the hole.
