Tusba mei help


lnf

Recommended Posts

I am a new member, new collector and still learning so please excuse any mistakes. I purchased a sword from a colleague of mine and this Tusba was mounted on the blade. The Tusba is signed and based on some research I think that the signature is Soheishi Nyudo Soten. I'm hoping that someone can confirm my guess. Any additional information would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks,

The market is full of fakes. This one looks like it merits a close look by someone who knows Sōten well. Obviously it has seen better days, but first things first. Determine if it is an authentic Sōten, and then figure out how/if it should be restored. In the meantime, handle with care.
