The seller is Aaron Justice, well known on SFI and does very nice work on customising production swords, in fact I have seen his rewrapping work for sale on the Oni Forge site. Its a good deal for someone!

Just curious if anyone recognises the tsuba used? It looks like a jinlong 'bamboo' with extra detail to me...quite nice.

Hi Vyapada
Your right it is the same tsuba. That tsuba has been used on a few different katana and can be bought on the Cheness web site.

Hi Sol,
Thanks for confirming that... I didn't realise other stores stocked them!
Interestingly from the 'masahiro wakizashi' thread it looks like the newer bamboo tsubas have this extra detail that I can't see in the picture I linked. I guess they are being constantly redesigned?

I think the picture is just taken in a way so the detail isn't obvious, but is there.

Ah, maybe I should pay more attention!
