Katana Practical Ikusa

Description

Katana Practical Ikusa

My master's swordsmanship technique drew on nature, and vegetation in particular. Forest and flora were his favorite places. He knew how to sneak in, hide there, jump, surprise enemies. For this reason, my tsuba has several references to plants, delicately openwork, with several gold and silver elements.
