The Making of a Classic Kinko Tsuba – Ford Hallam

Ford Hallam, the very talented and award-winning shiroganeshi (literally “silversmith”, but the term refers to soft-metal artists of kodogu and tsuba) is featured in this two part video, an enlightening window into his methods and technique.

The tsuba is the reproduction of a missing piece from the mid-1800′s and is an true masterpiece.

Enjoy the video and have a Merry Christmas!
