Simon,

welcome to the NMB forum!

Translation is difficult, as the photos are upside-down. In addition to that, it is a cast one, so a copy (of a GÔSHÛ TSUBA) with no collecting value.

Thanks for the welcome,

Sorry for upside down, i put the pictures the right way up. Hope that helps? probably not valuable but I really want to know what it says.

Thanks to you all. This is all so interesting, this piece has been in a box since 1947 it came from a widow who said it was brought back by her husband who was on the kokoda trail. I attached more pictures if anyone is interested. Happy to hear any thoughts about it that's for sure.
