Duke_of_vampires There is a good resource concerned with japanese sword, but currently it's temporary down. If it would wake up, I will let you know.
shoeach Not great, but I was engaged for 5 years in judo (20-25 years ago) and 5 years in yoshinkan for now. And my coach (67-years old Englishman who got his 1st dan from Shioda, and now he is 6th) even allowed me to touch his $60K katana couple of times
