Does anyone know where I can buy a tengai?
Hi, I live in California in the US.
Does anybody know anywhere in the US that sells tengai?
I found a place that sells kesa but my outfit is not complete without the tengai!
Or perhaps, is there a relatively cheap place online that can ship to the states?
Thanks,

MEJIRO -the Shakuhachi store in Tokyo <http://www.mejiro-japan.com/system/index_e.php>
is the only place that I know of anywhere.
And I'm sorry to say that it is not cheap .
Good Luck.

Go to the 'Search' function (upper left) and type in 'tengai', followed by 'return'; amazing what sorts of things you can find using the search engine.

Thanks a lot you guys!
I'll look into these sites for a start.
(And you are right Nyogetsu, there seems to be no "cheap" tengai". I guess it just adds more value to it after I get it.)
