    Reflection: If it is made in Japan it is a NIHON-to. If it is made in Taiwan it is a Taiwan-to. And if the blade looks like a contour map of the Sierras, it is a Shina-to or Chugoku-to....it isn't a NIHON'to. rockytopbob

    Hi. I'm a new guy from the Sierra. I bought my first two Nihonto over a half century ago in Tokyo...and Yumato's book, (Charles E. Tuttle) about the only Eigo book in print on Nihonto at that time. I'm interested in nihonto restoration now. In and out of blades over the years. Chu Sakusan: What SF organization? I'm pretty far back in the brush...but one junk Shinano-to I bought dumbly is great for pruning back the manzanita. The brilliance of these contributors is dazzling! Subarashii!
