Q568. Iron tsuba signed Ichiryuken Naotoshi with a Kao: gold inlay. 7.6 x 8.1 x .33 cm. The nakago hitsu-ana is ,9 x 2.6 cm. According to Robert Haynes Index, Naotoshi was a student of Yanagawa Naomasa and worked in the Ichiryu School. This tsuba comes with a Tokubetsu Kicho paper from the NBTHK, dated 1978.
