Id imagine if a tsuka was glued on well, the wod would be hard to get off. I imagine youd wanna take of a certain portion with a wood chisel and a hammer, then sand the rest? Id like to know what to excpect since id like to make this project nice!

Good to know. I'm planning on making a daisho for me and my girlfriend so I want a decent weapon.

Got it removed it was rusted on well but came off with some nudging of a flat head screwdriver in the seperated seam and a little wiggle it slid off the tang to reveal some rust and some laser etched somthing or other (maker's mark?) tsuca may be reuseable if I can get it to split cleanly, so good news is it's not glued on and the habaki was not jamed on eithor so removel was easy will make a vid if that will help things just to show how it all looks
