I have one of these Musashino Memento Mori tsuba, probably a product of the Otsuki school. For the longest time, I didn't like this theme. Then I hit a certain age, call it the Point of No Return, and did like the theme as a reminder to worry less and enjoy more. I have that poem inside the hako for the tsuba. 3 Quote
