Dragon Tsuba, Cast With Proper Inlay?

Recommended Posts

I also thought abut Jakushi at first but after close examination I am more and more skeptical. Here are some examples from my archives of tsuba that I am certain are real Jakushi. 

 

The things that are different:

 

1.  mei.

 

2. patina and steel color

 

3. Face and scales of the dragon are a bit "soft". Could not see any tool marks on them. 

 

But I am not certain. That is why I wrote the post in the first place. If you think that this looks like a genuine Jakushi, that is a good news for me:)
