SOLD - Reference Only
"Round (maru gata) iron tsuba with sukashi of dako-myoga and birds. Kaku mimi rim showing both subtle and bold tekkotsu. The seppa-dai that narrows at the top speaks for a rather early production.
The bold, symetrical design and well forged iron with conspicuous tekkotsu seems to date this to pre - Akasaka." (Long)
7.9cm x 7.9cm x 0.50cm
