  1. Be careful of what you can prove or not prove. People in some countries are very fast to sue.
  2. Welcome Stephan! You are off to a great start.
  3. I received an email from him today. We communicated a bit. He will receive the printed copies by May 15th. More information is to come.
  4. Put it together with a horn kashira, if shoshin, it will get a paper.
  5. Beautiful! Ford did a wonderful job on the piece. There is much to enjoy.
  6. George you continue to amaze me with the depth and breadth of your knowledge. You continue to make significant contributions here on Nihontomessageboard.
  7. Here is a tsuba with a mask theme.
  8. Have a great show Grey! I hope to be able to come next year.
  9. Wow! I haven't seen such an early work of Ford's. His current signature is very good. This one is very early....
  10. Autocorrect strikes again!
  11. Best of luck with the show. It is my favourite one. I hope to come next year. The USA Canada border remains closed until at least May 21st.
  12. I would also encourage you quickly restrict those who promote or do amateur polishing.
  13. I have not seen that before.
  14. Use a toothbrush and foaming soap. It is usually sold for use with children.
  15. Your link does not lead me to anything related to swords.
  16. Facing the stands, the tsuka is on the left, saya on the right. The sharp edge faces up, mune side down. This applies to katana and wakizashi.
  17. Hi George: thanks for adding the context for this beautiful piece.
  18. Thanks for sharing Bob. I'm sure that many of us wish that they were for sale rather than show.
  19. I see downvote but not who voted that way.
  20. Hi Mauro: I am most impressed by your record. I wish that I had seen something like that 20 years ago.
  21. I offer my condolences to Natalya and her son. Bill took on a big responsibility when accepted the challenge of running the Tampa sword show. He innovated in many ways. He will be missed by those who knew him.
  22. Here is one for you.
  23. Looks like a standard San Mai awase -the layer tsuba. The rim holds the layers together.
  24. Thanks Ian for sharing this wonderful journey and story.
