The English advertisement I was asked to make by the management of the All Japan Sword Traders Association is almost ready.
It is nice to be trusted by them with a task like this, and I think it will look nice once it appears in the Daily Yomiuri.
I look forward to the event itself, and to sharing my passion for Nihonto and Japanese culture, with both foreigners and Japanese visitors alike.
In many ways, the event itself feels as much as a celebration or a festival, as a forum for business, which makes it seem a little special.
It will be fun!
