Documentation Requiring the Stamping of Blades?
I am making an effort to clean up the intro to my Stamps Document (blades stamps), and realized that I have no document or reference book that conclusively states when the government declared that all non-traditionally made blades must be marked with a stamp. Kevin Jones (Ryujin Swords) and George Trotter say it was in 1938 but neither have a source.
Does anyone know of an authorative source, or govt document, which dates this edict?
