Museums tend to use renaissance micro crystalline wax.

Likes those Dragons. Is your tsuba up side down

All guess work but i would say late Edo. Looks Like it could have been mounted at one time. Leaves look like shakudo. Base metal looks like patternated shinchu (Brass) or copper.

Gimei. Not the work of Joi, not even close.

Which shodai Tadakuni. Shinano or Harima. ?

Not easy i know but feel free to take a guess

Kiyotoshi, Tanaka. 1804 to1876. ?

Mitsuoki ?

Looks ok, just not the Naomitsu. There is one very close in kinko meikan Markus Sesko has him as late edo early meiji. Also known as Kajihei.
