[takakage]

Hello,

 

I'm looking for swords shop at asakusa.....

Thanks a lot for your help

One could be near the Hotel Wasou......

 

(I have  already seen two around the kannon temple.)

I don't recall one in Asakusa, the one mentioned everywhere seems to only sell replicas: http://katanaya-asakusa.com/foreign_customer.htm

Even having been to Tokyo twice, I do not know where Asakusa is in relation to other suburbs. There is http://www.japansword.co.jp/which may be miles away, and a lot of knife shops in Asakusa such as http://en.japantravel.com/view/kamata-hakensha-knife-shop

Don't know the geography of Tokyo anymore unfortunately.

Thanks a lot Brian for your answer. It is  not this shop. Someone said me a  little shop of antiques swords near the Wasou hotel but i never found it last year.....

I think there are a lot of tiny shops few even know about. I even came across one in Ueno in the middle of the Ameyoko market that I have never seen mentioned anywhere.

Brian, you're inviting the wrath of all edokko (a person born and raised in Edo/Tōkyō) - Asakusa is not a suburb, but part of shitamachi, the old Edo!
