Help identifying Japanese tsuka / sword handles
Hi guys, recently acquired these tsukas at auction.
I know the first one is a WW2 NCO tsuka, but need help with the other 2. Can’t find anything similar to the metal dragon tsuka so absolutely any info would be appreciated. I’m guessing the 3rd one maybe belonged to a merchant as it’s quite plain, but have no idea really. Does anyone have any idea of the age of these 2 pieces and who might have used / owned them? |
