Paul Martin Posted June 22, 2010 Report Posted June 22, 2010 I received my NBSK competition catalogue this morning and thought I would share, seeing as there was an unusual amount of gaijin in it :D It is a little more expensive than the NBTHK's catalogue, but has much more in it, and great photography. I have posted some other pics relevant to current threads too. The catalogue cover, Another genuine Ono Yoshimitsu mei for comparison. Ford's tsuba, Brian Tschernega's habaki, David Mcdonald's tsuka-maki, and a tachi by Matsuda Tsuguyasu's deshi, up and coming smith Kamihata Makoto. Quote

bluboxer Posted June 22, 2010 Report Posted June 22, 2010 Thank you for posting this Paul, how would one go about obtaining copies of these competition catalogues and what are the dimensions please? Cheers, Quote
Paul Martin Posted June 22, 2010 Author Report Posted June 22, 2010 It is A4, and I expect either directly from the AJSA, or the NBSK. A friend sent me mine, so I don't really know. and they cost 1800 JPY. Quote
b.hennick Posted June 22, 2010 Report Posted June 22, 2010 If one of our members in Japan could arrange a purchase I would gladly pay for shipping and handling... Thanks in advance. Quote
Paul Martin Posted June 23, 2010 Author Report Posted June 23, 2010 I have another copy, someone else sent me one too. If everyone commits, and I get specific number to order, I can ask for a bunch to be sent to me. We can split the shipping and add the shipping from my address. Best Quote
Kevin Adams Posted June 23, 2010 Report Posted June 23, 2010 If Barry doesn't take your extra copy, I will! Otherwise, I'm in for a group purchase... Quote
