It really is you guys giving the crackpot theories this time. Tosen became a Shinigami BECAUSE of his friend's death. When he was at her grave, he didn't have a Zanpakuto because he wasn't a Shinigami yet to begin with. Now that either means that the sword he had was her Zanpakuto or some other type of sword, but that was not Suzumishi he had with him then.
