Description

★Shape and Structure: It has a Kushiana (tang hole) in the center for the blade to pass through, and on both sides of it are holes called Kozuka-ana and Kogai-ana for attaching small accessories that come with the sword's Koshirae (mountings).

★Design: The Tsuba in the image is close to the Momon (plain) or Tsuchime-ji (hammered finish) type with minimal decoration, giving it a simple and robust impression.

★Characteristics of Satsuma Koshirae: The style with two holes is one of the characteristics of Satsuma Koshirae, which was particularly favored in Satsuma (present-day Kagoshima Prefecture) during the Edo period.

★Tosho Tsuba: This refers to a simple iron Tsuba made by the swordsmith who forged the sword. It is characterized by a style that emphasizes practicality.

★Value as an Antique: Depending on the production period (e.g., Edo period), the maker (presence or absence of a signature), condition, and whether it has been authenticated as a preserved sword fitting, prices can range widely from several thousand yen to hundreds of thousands of yen.
