Hi all,

 

looking for sources, only find the JSSUS

My library book on this subject is: The Yasukuni Swords. Rare weapons of Japan 1933-1945.

I have seen the JSSUS you reference, and found it inferior to the book above.

Hi, there is some info on Jinsoo Kims website, http://www.jp-sword.com/  if you click on "special research" and then select "Yasukuni Blades" from the top of the page. Might not add much to the info in the book.

Thanks Denis and Phill,

 

Looking for articles, Blogs, pdf's etc.

Tom Kishida's books are far and away the definitive sources of information on the Yasukuni Tenrankai. There are some other, earlier articles, such as the one done by Fujishiro Okisato but they don't tell you anything that isn't in Kishida san's book. I believe there are two or three versions of his book...

Hello:

The JSSUS used to give the book and translations to new members. We have run out of the translations and so I posted a PDF of the translation. The book is still available for sale. Copies will be available at the Tampa sword show.

Actually, copies won't be available at the Tampa show.  Harry Watson, who sells our books, won't be attending.  He will be at the San Francisco show and possibly Chicago.  If he's at a show you can get the book free for joining the JSS/US.
