I don't know Tom that well, but I do know him (or of him). I once bought a very nice Shakudo Tsuba (with a Shakudo Fukurin) off him in Perth, Western Australia, in 2003. I still have it. I love it.. It was at his house and he had sort of set up his front lounge room as a quasi shopfront.

 

The Tsuba was $750, but after a conversation, he let me have it for $650, so I was very pleased.. Although, he did pass it off as a 'Daimyo Tsuba' (blah, blah, blah) with (supposedly) 60% gold content.!! Of course I just wanted the Tsuba, so let him rabbit on (pretending I was a bit of a nube) until I was out of there... 

 

Not long after that, I was led to beleive he moved to Ballarat, Victoria.

 

Where did you run into him..?

I know him well from many decades - many decades ago.  Bendigo is where I last heard he was 'at'.  'at' I know know not what and the emojis don't exist for me to comment further...
