Japanese Daggers authored by Yoshisada Suzuki Sensei

The only book ever published to deal only with Tanto (Daggers)

Awesome photographs of some of the FINEST extant daggers in Japanese museums and collections

Chronology arranged from the oldest to the newest (From the BACK as Japanese people read-from)

Sadly for us Gaijin the TEXT is entirely in Nihongo (The JAPANESE LANGUAGE) but as luck would have it this one comes along with a C.D. that (If you ask your kids) you can likely PRINT the entire ENGLISH TRANSLATION from (or read it on your computer)

The translation was published by the Japanese Sword Society of the United States, Inc., St. Louis, MO (1984) The translation ALONE (with NO pictures) is being sold on Abe books for US$75.00

This book is long out-of-print

The cheapest copy I could find on the WWW was this one priced at US$491.00 + postage and GST on import

CONDITION = excellent with original dust jacket, no obvious wear, damage, staining, foxing, no missing pages, no scribbling

This is a SUPERB addition to any Nihonto collector's library = pure sword porn :-)

It took me TEN YEARS to obtain a copy of this book for my own reference library
