Good product but long wait time for delivery to US. Because of wrenches thrown into trade wheels by Trump administration, my order was held in custom clearance stage for weeks. Akazuki was awesome. They replied my message and the item was well packaged. Top notch Japanese item and customer service.
Thank you
