Wonderful film. I might have to eat at his youngest sons place instead !!
The irony is that they acquired their first Mich rating while oldest son was sushi chef and Jiro was off

Have you sent him the swords, and recived?
All the hw that you see in the link he should have. The only missing piece was the wave fk that were stuck in hakata customs for a week. everything else is already with hans. He is a rockstar!!

Haha. Thanks Ed. Those are all beautiful swords
Right now I am set, just waiting on Hans Koga to complete the Koshirae.
Attached are the swords. Both Tokubetso Hozon, the wakazashi also Yushuto.

This may be of some interest, even though it goes back a few years:

Thanks for this Brian. I saw it earlier , and when I bought the tansu, i got a set of keys. They don't work in the locks, but I was surprised how delicate the looked.
The Katanadansu came "unlocked" so that was more of a joke.
An interesting thing I noticed, though:
- My handles are square stock and squared at the corners also. This is not something that I have seen on any of the examples of tansu that anyone has posted. Zoom in on my pics to see what I am referring to.
- Does this indicate a region that it was made?

Brian, I am not sure what you are trying to say (as I run and duck for cover) :-)

As always, I stumbled on a very cool video
It is fascinating if how the gold leaf, that is on our habakis, tsuba, fuchi kashira is produced. Doesn't seam much has changed in 500 years!!

I just saw a "waterjet" cutter called a WASER. It might be what you are looking for

After all of this being said, what is the ideal humidity to keep the swords in? I live on Hong Kong island at the base of the mountain. Two dehumidifiers run continuously to keep my humidity at approx 40-50%. Some days they can each pull out about 1 liter or more.
Will this be a good humidity level?
My swords are still having the Koshirae being made by Hans, so I don't have any direct experience
