I heard that "3Rensyo" is the most famous Japanese hand build brand in U.S. 3Rensyo brand was end (or reduction of business?). I heard that, since Mr.Yoshi Konno, a founder, caused the traffic accident and he retired, it became such a situation.
The chief builder of 3Rensyo was Mr.Masahiko Makino. Mr.Makino started his own brand "Makino". He have an official webstie written in English. You can read by English language. There is not a strange sign like an space alien's words. It seems that you are able to place the order.
