It look like it’s one of the pieces used for retention of the scabbard to the handle.

Hi, idk if this may help but one of the other pronounciations of Ichi is Kazu, I think. so in this case if you are correct on your assessment of the first kanji it may be rendered as Kikazu regards

I’m interested if you want to part with it. thanks -
Ok that makes sense for this one above but the tweezer version…?? Maybe same way?

So we assume the cord cylinder is what is being used as the Mekugi? Thank you

Good day to you all, how do these koshirae fittings fit together and disassemble? Any input would be appreciated for my understanding. Thank you
-
That one is in pretty bad shape, and the koshirae isn’t great either. Wait and find better

Thank you for that correction

This looks to be water quenched but signed like a jackass 🤣 thoughts

This sword was purchased as an unseen Kai Gunto, high quality koshirae (the Tsuka is out for re-wrap) so will post pics later. The interesting part isn’t just the actual blade and hamon with tobiyaki, but the Chippy Mei that the Gunto swords seem to have. Signed Kanetada, who is listed in Sesko it seems. I like to joke and say it was his disabled brother who signed it for him 🤣 It also appears to be ubuha, although a Bubba tried to sharpen it sometime in the past.

This almost looks like it’s supposed to read “Fujiwara Ju Yasumitsu” but that seems unusual. Sorry I can’t read it better
