Tetsu-ji maru-gata nikubori sukashi kebori sukinokoshi mimi Befitting the name of Myochin, a truly magnificent nikubori sukashi has been applied to a truly superbly forged tetsu-ji. It is said that Myochin Yoshihisa studied under Myochin Matahachiro Yoshihisa, who moved from Sagami Province to Echizen Fukui in the early Edo period, and was permitted to use the Myochin name, becoming a retained smith for the Echizen Matsudaira family. All generations up to the tenth generation at the end of the Edo period used the name Yoshihisa, and while it is not clearly known which generation this is, from the magnificence of the forging and carving of this tsuba, it is thought to probably be by the first or second generation, who are transmitted as being highly skilled. It is a sukashi tsuba with matchlock tools superbly carved out. In a kiri box
