Darn it!  Of course you are right - it’s your blade after all!!!    Magoroku Kanemoto.  LOVED IT!!!  Sometimes my fingers type faster than my brain remembers.

Mark, looks like you pulled off a great and successful show under the most difficult of circumstances. Well done, and congrats!
Oneday I'll make it over.

Hi Everyone,

 

I had a great show. Thank you very much Mark Jones for putting on such a great Chicago show. I cannot wait until next year. I was able to transport this big book I purchased from Grey Doffin without problem. I need it for the study of a new katana in my collection. I will post photos later.

Ah yes. The Mino Taikan.... a book I shouldn't have sold.

Been a while since I saw one.

Hi. Anyone who has any pictures of the Chicago Sword show that they would like to share I would like to see them.

It is always nice to see a table of tsuba, or old friends.

 

Thanks,

Hi Mark, I took three pictures while there. Not the best pictures though.

Here is a picture of me setting up my two tables I had at the show on Friday morning. Tony Smith another table exhibitor is in the near background. The photo was taken by my table neighbor at the show with his iPhone. It was a really great show. Thank you again Mark Jones for putting together such a nice show.

Thanks, David. I hope the show was a good one for you. I always like that one.

See you in Orlando!
