Will Bas be covering noh masks again as covered in legacy 2 ? Hi, At this point, we're still finalizing speakers and topics. However, we expect to have 3-5 presentations, including the Noh performance. We actually have the meeting room available until late afternoon and the visit to the "Masked Warriors" exhibition will likely take place afterward at around 5PM +/-. John Quote

Shogun8 Posted October 23, 2017 Report Posted October 23, 2017 I'm pleased to say that we already have several of the top dealers in the world confirmed for this Armor Fair. It will be the first of its kind in terms of concentrated quality in the world. 1 Quote
DaveT Posted October 24, 2017 Report Posted October 24, 2017 When you say top dealers in the world its rather a bould statement. That sometimes can be translated as the most expensive. Could you please provide the names of whom is attending so that we, the community may be a judge of the quality. Quote
Shogun8 Posted October 24, 2017 Report Posted October 24, 2017 When you say top dealers in the world its rather a bould statement. "Bould" perhaps, but true. 2 Quote

dodgy_yoshitsune Posted February 15, 2018 Report Posted February 15, 2018 Hello, when is the agenda being sent out for the event, I haven't seen anything yet about it and need to make arrangements. Thanks, Stuart Quote
Luc T Posted February 16, 2018 Author Report Posted February 16, 2018 I hope they have Belgian beer in Amsterdam. I'm not in for Heineken. Quote
uwe Posted February 16, 2018 Report Posted February 16, 2018 Please put one aside for me, if you're able find any, Luc Quote
dodgy_yoshitsune Posted February 16, 2018 Report Posted February 16, 2018 I hope they have Belgian beer in Amsterdam. I'm not in for Heineken. A good few Belgian bars in Amsterdam and lots of decent places that are non-Heineken, which I agree is a shocking beer! 1 Quote
