This is an iron sukashi tsuba signed by Echizen Ju Kinai. It features gold inlay, which is somewhat atypical for a Kinai tsuba, suggesting it might have been a deluxe model. The tsuba is in excellent condition and includes a shakudo pillow in the ryo-hitsu.

Without one, the attribution is the seller’s own assessment and has not been independently verified — treat it with caution and ask the dealer about certification before buying.
