Anyone else new to Nihonto (live on the forum, or still lurking!): 

Thirty quid is a really good price for one of the "must have" new-starter books.  I bought one just a few weeks ago and the best price I could get mine for was £38 plus postage.  Even if you're not going to buy a blade but are interested in the discussions on NMB , its a really good reference book.

 

Note 1: I have no connection with the seller, other than having just bought a couple of books off him.

 

Note 2: I am feeling very smug and righteous, having actually provided some (possibly) helpful advice on NMB ............ small steps! :laughing:

 

Cheers,

 

Jon
