Surfson Posted July 31, 2011 Report Posted July 31, 2011 Hi All. Years ago, I saw a Japanese sword on the wall at Sagamore hill, Teddy Roosevelt's home in NY. It was given to him by the emperor when he brokered a peace between Japan and Russia at the end of the Sino-Russian war. Does anybody know who made the sword?
