Hi everybody,

 

Need your help again. The first 2 kanji I believe are: 藤利.

Can be:

1. Fujitoshi. The only Fujitoshi I could find in Haynes Index is Fujitoshi Toshinaga which is not the case.

2. Fuji Toshi... 

 

I've seen several tsuba by this hand / workmanship but only this one so far signed. Interesting enough there is another daisho on yahoo  right now with the signature of Sekibun, which I believe is gimei.

John, I think we are on the right path. This master somehow is connected to / or is Fuji Toshinaga. I've found the description of a tsuba by Fujitoshi in the collection of Field Museum (image attached)

The one they refer to in Naunton collection signed Fuji Toshinaga has the similar subject and design.
