An authentic antique Japanese kinko fuchi kashira set, from a well-known collection, offered used. The fuchi is the collar that sits at the base of the sword handle and the kashira is the cap at its end; together they make up a matched pair of soft-metal fittings, which is what the kinko label means.

With few details given beyond its origin, this set suits a Delaware collector who buys on provenance and will examine the fittings in hand. Coming from a well-known collection gives it a documented background that many loose fittings lack. Use it to complete a handle that is missing its collar and cap, or keep it in a fittings display with tsuba and kozuka, where a matched antique pair carries more interest than mismatched singles.
