Huge Iron Katchu-shi Tsuba. Nicely forged plate with a raised rim as is the style of Katchu-shi. A tsuba of this size was likely made as a presentation piece. Katchushi means armour-smith in Japanese. So, it is said that the definition of Katchushi-Tsuba is tsuba made by armuor-smiths or swordsmith craftsmen. Those openwork looks similar to ears of the masks of Katchu (=armour). |
