The 9th Okinawa Sword Show July 11, 2016
The 9th Okinawa Sword Show was held over a three-day weekend, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. First of all, I was concerned with the approach of the violent typhoon but fortunately the weather diverted its course toward Taiwan.
This event has taken place every 6 months for the past 4 years with Mr. Yamada of Santoryu. Also this time Mr. Fijita of Kanda Tokodo joined us in cheer. We did our best in trying to find and increase people who loves Japanese swords in Okinawa.
The number of visitors set a record high and I was happy to see many familiar faces including the repeat customers who made some purchases.
Also I help consult with a local Japanese sword enthusiast. He plans to open a Japanese sword shop in Naha City near the event place, Okinawa Culture & Entertainment Museum, Tenbusu Naha. I hope to be able to continue contributing to him.
