Request help with tsuba translation and identification

[Iaido dude]

I am not nearly experienced or knowledgeable enough to know if this tsuba is genuine and if inscription is meaningful. There appear to be different exposures of one side. Would be grateful for assistance.

Genuine - super good nanako [dot finish] with what looks like a catalogue number written on the seppa-dai.

 

Found it - mokko form, silvered metal nanako, inlaid with shakudo and gilt, showing birds and rockery, signed 守一壽.

From this auction https://hindmanaucti...Japanese-metal-tsuba  your images are far better than the auction house.

Hey! a real tsuba.

Nice to see one.

 

First pass at a read "Mori Kazuyoshi" or "Mori Kazutoshi"?

Perhaps best to expand that signature and put it in the translation section for the fluent readers.

Thanks very much.
