Fuchi/Kashira. Samurai sword handle components. They are usually
made as a set, with identical or corresponding decoration.
Elements made of shakudo (an alloy of
copper with gold). The kashira, the cap that closes the handle, depicts a
Japanese god named Hachiman. The Fuchi ring at the other end of the
of the handle presents a samurai on horseback. Together they provide a beautiful symbol of the
of the samurai world.
