Provenance:    Robert E. Haynes Under Study

"A simple iron tsuba with hammered surface, rounded corners and a plain copper fukurin. Seems to have been made for a Muromachi period uchikatana battle sword, dating ca.1300 or earlier. Although it is extremely thin, the iron is sturdy." (Haynes & Long)


Length: 6.22cm x 5.80cm x 0.15cm
