JAPANESE EDO TSUBA LARGE KATANA SIZE RELIC DUG WAR SAMURAI SWORD GOLD QUALITY What a REMARKABLE Tsuba ! Large 3 inch by 2.75 Katana size Samurai Sword Tsuba of the Edo era. Also of unique interest is its state of existence. It looks to have been dug. As if lost in battle oh so long ago. But with history, long ago is relative. Was it lost in Nihon -in some wet rice field as metal clashed with metal? Or perhaps on an island far from home in WWII to a different clash of metal upon flesh? Such wonder is endless with all fragments of history. Please enjoy the photos of a wise man attempting to teach the futility of war with amazing quality and genuine Gold accents. On a higher Shinto plane, perhaps the CONDITION of this Tsuba makes it a true diamond in the rough of life. (ebay 02/16/2013-001)
