Hi. I've just joined this "club", so hello to all. I started collecting and the study of Nihon-to in 1984, but sort of got out of it about 2001 (sold most of my collection and much of my reference material).

Great to see Dr Richard Stien making some very valuable contributions, Richard has such a great knowledge and can contribute so much in all our endeavours to learn more and help in the learning about the Japanese Sword and its place in the history, the history of the sword throughout the world, many thanks Richard, please keep adding to our knowledge,
regards
John
