A kinko fuchi and kashira set, the collar and pommel cap that finish the handle of a Japanese sword. This set is polished copper shakudo with an inlay of bamboo, attributed to the Kaga School, and it is unsigned. It is sold in used condition as the collectible fitting it is.

Collectors in New Mexico who assemble or restore a sword mounting will find the bamboo inlay and the Kaga attribution the points of interest here; the set can go onto a handle or sit in a fittings collection. Polished shakudo over copper gives the surface its tone, and with no signature the attribution rests on style. As a fitting it needs no permit or dealer to buy, and it packs small for shipping.
