Does anyone on this forum know a good craftsman who might be able to replace/restore the hilt on a samurai sword captured off of a Japanese officer in WWII? While the continental U.S. would be preferred, other locations would not be precluded.
Thanks.

Im not up on US craftsman, but as well as the above mentioned, maybe David Mc Donald can help. Ive never used him but have heard he does good work.
