  1. The shock and grief of the news of Darcy's passing has robbed me of words. So much has been said about this great man. I myself owe so much to Darcy, his generosity to me and the Nihonto world is unmatched. I knew him for many many years and over this time had the honor and privilege to learn so much from him. He helped me personally and with my swords. He will truly be missed by all. He was a true Nihonto aficionado and my collection wouldn't be what it is today without his help. My deepest condolences and prayers for his family and closet friends.
  2. Hello Everyone, I'm reporting that I finally mailed my blade to Japan for restoration with Kunitaro-san. I took Brian's advise and just went to another post office. I listed on the declaration form Japanese Antique Nihonto like Derek suggested but the person at the counter said I needed to be more specific. I was thinking to my self oh boy here we go again. So I proceeded to say a tanto and the person said again what is a tanto? And I finally replied it's a Antique sword, blade or dagger what ever you would like to call it, even a knife and they said to me, no problem. And that was that. I do believe that people make this stuff up as they go along. I guess I should have asked to speak with the supervisor at the first Post office but then again the who knows what that person would have told to me. In the end you can ship a sword, wakizashi and tanto to Japan through the Post office with no problem what so ever. Thank you to everyone for the advice. Andy

    Hello everyone, I was hoping that someone may have Takeo Seki number or email. I can't find him on the Internet. Thanks,
