Higo Style Doeskin Sageos


Traditional Higo styled koshirae often have doeskin sageos en suite with the tsukaito, but they also make a wonderful accent to other styles of koshirae. Now, after a great deal of development, testing, and effort, I am happy to offer handmade doeskin sageos that match my doeskin tsukaito. Each sageo is 180 cm long (Katana length) and 13mm wide, with finished ends, match seam on the reverse for beautiful finish, and is internally reinforced and bonded for strength and durability.
At the moment there are four available colors;
Other colors will be available soon. Longer or shorter lengths are available by quotation if desired.
Leather Tsuka-Ito
Leather for Wrapping Tsuka

This is leather ito I have custom made for my own use due to the difficulty in finding leather ito of consistent quality and width. There are currently three colors available, black, a deep brown and new color, a rich navy blue.
Many other colors are possible, but you will need to contact me to discuss that color's feasability.

Doe Skin Ito

Due to the difficulty in finding quality doeskin ito I have began making my own supply. This ito has all of the look and luscious texture you expect from doeskin but is very strong and resilient. Many colors are available including the "standard" black and brown. Please inquire.
