  1. Nearly the same happened to me quite some time ago with a little yari i bought from Grey Doffin. At first they wanted me to prove that the yari was NOT important! Bunch of clowns sometimes...
  2. Tickets are now available: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/japanartexpo/246264?fbclid=IwAR2bD6qIuOagIYXhL9c0-OeVZfas0WnfnPyuip0EkcY_90RdRmdDC-Wo6fI
  3. Just signed up. Any idea when tickets will be available?
  4. It is called "Mesh Stick Tea" https://www.amazon.de/Mesh-Gr%C3%BCner-Tee-Green-Sticks/dp/B00RD87XD4/ref=sr_1_12?__mk_de_DE=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&crid=1L9Z51WCOEC69&keywords=mesh+stick+tea&qid=1559769939&s=gateway&sprefix=mesh+stick+%2Caps%2C193&sr=8-12 Looked suspicious at first, but is quite good actually. The Yunomi was made by a german potter. regards,
  5. Well, you asked for it... P.S.: The tea and the yunomi are both of dubious origin.
  6. Hi Chris, it´s quite normal that stuff enters a black hole after arriving at the airport frankfurt. Normally it takes 1 week till another update pops up. The longest gap (for me) was 6 weeks though... Try DHL Tracking, they transport all the items that go through customs in germany. I hope you get your tsuba quickly! regards,

    First Yari

    Nice piece! Kaga smith´s were quite reknown for polearms.
  8. Eiji Yoshikawa, who also wrote "Taiko". If you like manga, try "Vagabond" by Takehiko Inoue. regards,
  9. I don´t have the slightest clue what it is, but now i want one .
  10. Thanks Jeremiah! The last Stephen King book i read was "Sleeping Beauties", which was a more than unpleasent experience.
  11. Hi folks, the title pretty much says it all... show what you got for christmas/Chanukka/Kwanzaa. It does not matter if it´s a nihonto, tosogu or even yakimono . I got myself a nice pair of mokume tsuba by Sankei: regards,
  12. I accepted this as a fact BEFORE I started studying and looking for kodugu. After some experience, I think we can put this one to bed. Gimei can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever. Raise hand if you got the movie reference.
  13. Hi Steven, i do not really see them. But i know why you can see them: https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Pareidolia regards,
