cabowen Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 Just came across a long forgotten but mint extra set of Yamanaka's Newsletters, spiral bound. These are probably the most compete and comprehensive English language source of information on all schools and most mainstream smiths from Koto through the Bakumatsu period. They were published in the late 1960's/early 1970's. There are 5 volumes and well over 1000 pages of text. Albert Yamanaka was a student of Honami Koson and his Newsletters are full of insights and information not available elsewhere. These are rare and hard to come by...$400 OBO, shipping not included. Email me at swords@ejapaneseswords.com rather than PM...Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 That's a must have, IMHO, not far from Nihon To Koza in info and far cheaper... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cabowen Posted December 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 Thanks Jean...I agree, there is nothing else available in the English language which is as comprehensive as the Yamanaka Newsletters... Last call, marked down once to $325....buy yourself a Christmas present.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
