Book excerpt: Aizu and Aizu Shoami Tsuba is an essential reference for collectors of Nihonto (Japanese swords) and tsuba (Japanese sword guards). This work provides an overview of the history of Aizu and major figures of the past in Aizu province. The kantei (evaluation) of Aizu Shoami tsuba is discussed in detail with a review of previous studies done in this area. Examples of Aizu Shoami tsuba are shown in full color with close up images of workmanship and mei (signatures). A list of makers is given and it is the most complete record of Aizu Shoami Tsuba makers ever published to date. This list includes kanji and details such as period of manufacture and work style for many of the entries. Combining an overview of the cultural history of Aizu province with the specialized study of Aizu Shoami tosogu (Japanese sword furniture) makes for a highly engaging read and enhances our overall appreciation towards Aizu Shoami tsuba wonderfully.

Book excerpt: An updated book on Tsuba, the artistic and genius hand guard to the Japanese Samurai's edged weapons. This new edition sports the welcome and controversial valuations of Tsuba, elusive to most Tsuba publications. Additional Tsuba have been added, along with accompanying information for these newly included pieces. Theme explanations, descriptions and collection notes also follow a brief backdrop into the beginnings of how the collection came to be. With the continuation from the book, "Tsuba - in the hands of a collector (vol 1.5)" this book is the effort to show a small, but growing, portion of Tsuba to a larger audience as the pieces rightly deserve. Collected through the Western eye, in appreciation to the Eastern Art.
