I placed a ad in the classifeds but thought I'd try here too. I'm looking for a source for Hanwei replacement parts in the US. I googled the devil out of it but got nothing. I need a Tsuba for a Bushido Katana. I would consider a different brand if it has a similar design. Not looking to put a Thousand plus dollar antique on it which is all google was finding for me. Thanks for any help.

Thanks for any help. Cottontail customs - cottontailcustoms.com/contact/Many forum members are likely to have a spare tsuba or two, just add in a vague description, round style, square style etc. Alternatively iron tsuba's for $20 US with free freight, other vendors do much the same. www.ebay.com.au/itm/Japanese-IRON-Tsuba-for-Katana-Wakizashi-Tanto-for-choosing-/371229667437

Thanks Aussie, it's the prettiest Katana I have so if I'm going to replace the tsuba I want to do it with one of equal or better looks. I looked at some on Amazon but they where all pretty plain. I don't do business with Ebay anymore do to some problems I've had with them. The big one is I won't give my bank account number to Paypal which is owned by Ebay and is the only form of payment they'll take now. In the beginning Paypal would take your payment from your credit card which if they didn't cover you with their " Paypal Protection " you could have your credit card company do a charge back, which I had to do one time. Try to get your money back after they took it out of your bank account. I had one member offer me a stock Bushido tsuba which I will probably go with but wanted to see if anything nicer would pop up. My other Katanas and Wakizashis are all plain Janes so it's nice to have one pretty one to kiss. ![big-smile-smiley-emoticon.gif](//storage.forums.net/1694914/thumbnailer/pv9uHE8d613zlAW0dDk1.gif)
