San Francisco Token Kai Show this Fri-Sun

[kaigunair]

Largest nihonto show outside of Japan. I'll be manning the new club sponsored examination/kantei booth, which has been given two tables in a corner of the hall! For those trying to assess a blade, they will have an array of lights to choose from. For the tosogu lover, there will a few tosogu magnifier+light set ups. All this under a canopy to block out the room lights.

 

Also thinking of bringing some some measurement calipers (but still need to figure out how to keep these from walking away from the table).

 

Stop by and say hi.

Please post pictures, if at all easy to do so.

I haven't made it to the SF show in years and wish I could.

Will post some pics, but probably just big room shots...

 

I'm guessing people want to see what's on the tables, but not sure if that would be kosher with the table owners.
