Some collars and knick knacks I found online awhile ago. I figure someone might appreciate the Japanese designs, though I dunno if I'd use the collars.

    Wow, love the Kai stickers! I see the Website is in Japanese characters. Any English-language version of this that you know of?

    LMAO! Those are pretty cool.... A Tosa is just a little bigger than Kona tho - just a bit.

    Those very last ones are really cool!

    Wow, the detail in those designs is impressive. :-)

    $1600 for a collar? You have to be kidding me. You'd be half way to importing a Shikoku from Japan for that amount of money.

    I want some konpeito! Why doesn't North America have any similar candies?

    I guess rock candy is similar, but not nearly as awesome.

    I emailed that site w/ the stickers to see if they will ship to the US - I would love a Kai, Shikoku, Akita and Shiba sticker [one for each breed]. I'll let you guys know what they say - if they will ship here I might just buy some of each so we all have some. :o)

    If they don't ship here I may require your services Shigeru. :o)

    Seriously, if you all want stuff that's over here, I don't mind helping relay it over there :P

    I'll set my email address to 'show' so anyone who wants to get ahold of me can.

    There is a Global Pro Series knife I have been wanting from Japan...

    me too me too!!!!

    I love Global Knives!!

    Global knives are so cool!
    But I saw a shop on a Travel Channel program where you could pretty much have a knife custom made for you, and they would engrave your name on it and it would come in this fancy box. I have to say it got me wanting one of those. Unfortunately, they were kind of expensive.
    I think the shop was in Tokyo, but I'm not sure since the show was about loads of places in Japan.

    This place has a ton of awesome Japanese knives, they are out of NY:

    A lot of them are really, really expensive. The Global Pro are more for professional use, a bit heavier than the regular ones. They only sell them in Japan though.

    The inquiry thank you.
    You say Watabe of harmony dog concentration.

    We communicate concerning the case which is the inquiry.
    Presently, with this shop, we do not accept the dispatch to the foreign country.
    Very much, there is no excuse, but acknowledgment, the fish we ask.
