Tsuba, Iron, Maru Gata, 70mm x 70.3mm x 6.9mm (Antique) w/ Kiri-bako (桐箱)

I always loved simplicity in tsuba, and this one nailed it. I have been looking for a wakizashi tsuba for quite some time, and Ashigaru Armory had exactly what I wanted. The tsuba was shipped the next day and got it in 2 days time. The kiri-bako in which the tsuba was in was well protected (padded) around and along the inside of it. The packaging also had a really nice personal touch equipped with a well written letter (beautiful handwriting by the way) that imbues the integrity that follows their product. I really appreciate the whole transaction from start to finish which was simple and easy. Will be coming back here again!
