Kantei Kurabu Origami


Recommended Posts

Hello:

 This morning Aoi posted for auction a tanto with an origami issued by the Kantei Kurabu organization some years ago. Mr. Tsuruta assures that the tanto, a Kanetoki, would get a Hozon (at least?), if submitted to the NBTHK. The discussion of kantei submissions here on the NMB is primarily focused on the NBTHK, but there have been quite a few groups from the immediate pre-War era into now that existed, fell in relative status, fractured into parts, or just disappeared.

 Does anyone know anything about Kantei Kurabu ? I understand it was headed by the late Shibata san, a respected dealer and had a number of judges.

 The recent posting of Bob Haynes' "The NBTHK - A Short History" and some of the implications that flow from it casts some evolutionary light on the comings and goings of the various groups, and I am sure each has something of an interesting history.
