[edit] katana fix

You’ve got a good point, however I am not that great at writing. And from the archives it seems you’ve helped in the past when rewriting was needed to filter-out POV statements. So if you don’t mind my asking could you rewrite that paragraph and post it in here. Thank youFreepsbane 15:30, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

And yeah it seems that all the editors stopped editing after this article made it to GA status. Maybe we’ve grown to complacent, thanks for reminding us. Freepsbane 15:33, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Can do, thanks. I want katanas to get featured status, after all. Kensai Max 16:08, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Just wanted to let you know I’ve seen all the help you’ve given to the project, and appreciate the numerous subtle but valuable contributions you have provided.

[edit] Swordsmanship

I noticed that you seem to be quite a knowledgeable individual about Japanese swordsmanship as a whole, and not just a single school or piece of history. Your contributions to the swordsmanship article would be more than welcome. When you edit, keep in mind that the article is being written in a somewhat expanded WP:SS format. Each section should (if possible) contain a link to a significant article and then some brief information so that some information can be garnered from the page. I hope that you can find time for this - my own understanding of Japanese swordsmanship is embarrassingly minor (as it is with european swordsmanship, really). Thank you! -xiliquiern^talk 16:01, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

I'll be glad to see what I can do. It's nice seeing that someone finally got around to fixing up the Swordsmanship article. Kensai Max 16:18, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Q&A

hey I need to know about you are you nippon? - Some random dude who put this up on my main user page.

To take this literally, I am a red-blooded, stars and stripes-waving American of, if I am recalling correctly, primarily French, German and Scottish descent. My love of Japanese culture, history and martial arts is entirely unrelated to my family heritage. On another level, however, I am an American (one of the very few countries in the world with no ethnic strings attached!), and sushi and the katana are exactly as American as the saber and saurkraut.

[edit] Bugei blade? (Q&A 2)

My apologies for bothering you with such a question but I have been considering the purchase of a Bugei sword and by your last post you implied having knowledge of Bugei products, so I thought I would ask you; would you consider the [Wave Katana] a good blade for tameshigiri cutting. Your opinion would be appreciated, thank you. Freepsbane 01:14, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
