Hi all,

 

A friend of mine asked me to translate the mei on his tsuba. Unfortunately I could only figure out the first (木) and last character (政 = Masa?). Anybody have a clue? Lots of thanks in advance.

Is this tsuba by RAIYOKEN YOSHIMASA (H 11822.0), working in the mid-1850s? Haynes describes a tsuba by this artist as 'iron tsuba, thickened border, with dragon and waves in relief.'
