My Tsubas are cuted, glued (each layer) and hand sewn with very strong thread. Outside edge is beveled, rounded and
covered with fray protection.
Tsuba has three layers of leather. Its not very stiff and but still give some protection. Each layer is glued and all of them are hand sewn together.
Thicknes of Tsuba hotsell direclty affects how stiff it will stay on your bokken, Slimmer Tsuba is more prone to move, this one is quite soft.
Each tsuba should be threaded at least from outside to keep it durable and stiff. You can chose to have not sewn
tsuba at all, layers will held by only glue itself. This may work well or may fail in short term. Its up to you how
much stronger it can be. Inner hem can make tsuba even more durable with each next bokken you put it on. Keep in
mind glueing is only for manufactureing help, and it could be insufficient for long abuse.
This tsuba has only one hem on the outside.
