Thank you Steve. Based on the information you brought to me, this 伊藤政備, might be read as Ito Masanari. There is one from the Odawara Ito school being the adopted son of Masanari first generation and a student of MasaTsugu who signed this way. He is one of the two listed in Haynes under reference 04293 and 04294.

Hi, I think I can read the first three kanji as ITO MASA but impossible to me to read the 4th one. Can someone help me ? Thank you Bruno

This tsuba has been mounted several time on different blades. Last one was probably smaller than the former one and a copper add on has been set up to have the tsuba fixed closely with the blade. This former blade might be a pole arm , naginata, yari explaining the nakago ana initial shape.

Hi, I have plenty of questions about this tsuba: 1- What are the kanji meaning on the seals ? 2- I read the signature as Yoshi Hiro . Is it right? If so, Is it customary to sign this way and Is it a kantei point which might me know who was this artist ? Thank you for your help. Bruno

Hi Damon, a lot of Heianjo tsuba as yours show such inlays around the plate . An other exemple herewith.

Thank you Colin and Curran. This was also my opinion.

I have this Daigoro Tsuba with Mother-of-pearl and ivory inlays. Do you think inlays are original to the tsuba or added more recently ? Thank you Bruno

I guess Tsuchiya Masachika but what about the other kanji?

Thank you Steve. Translating I conclude that it is 1842 (13th year of Tempo erea) -
Hi NMB friends, I guess I can read Tsuchiya Masachika, but what is the meaning of the kanji on the right side? Thank you Bruno

Would someone be kind enough to identify these two tsuba
Kurikata replied to roger dundas's topic in Tosogu
Hi Roger, Some similarities can be found with your second tsuba is Varshavsky collection: https://varshavskycollection.com/collection/tsu-0410-2021/ It is described as signed by Nidai Nobuie with a lotus shape. I hope it helps.thumb.jpeg.669f6932e61c29f9609f0e532ca8ca7e.jpeg)

Several of you where kind enough to comment my tsuba in the thread in copy. Quite by chance, I discovered in its box, hidden under the tsuba support plate this specific text. I assume it is describing the tsuba topic. Can someone translate it for me ? It would be of great help. Thank you !

Dale, even if it is a little bit erased, the nanako is present on all the rim of the tsuba. Some clouds are even engaved on the perimeter continuously on both sides.

Thank you Steve - Do you mean SOYO ? Could it be the 3rd generation Yokoya (H 08953) -(1700-1779) ? or simply the 5th generation Soyo (H 08954) who took the Yokoya name without the family permission.? Anyway thank you so much for this translation .

Another certificate for a mumei tsuba. I consider the attribution made by NBTHK as So Otsu but.... Any confirmation or new attribution would be of great help. Thank you
