    Naotane Kanemitsu-Utsushi

    BIG replied to BIG's topic in Nihonto

    Lost in translation.. Mr. Hoppen changed "loss" into "use" and gives items a only for study mark. Best Regards

    Good question so, do we have enough items fot a long shinsa weekend in Canberra, Adelaide, London, Berlin or Paris ? Secondly is NBTHK willing to have that shinsa outside Japan. Asking the NTHK or NPO Mr. Bowen once said, yes he will do so in Europe some day... Who is willing to organize and take care? Who will ship his swords and drive or fly anxious or in good hope... Questions, questions, questions concerning the mind of the ambitious collector today... Best Regards
