Went to see Ran today. Man, what a cool spot!! He was incredibly friendly and I couldn't believe the amount of history he had on display in his shop. He helped me id (99% sure) the spur and took pics to send to North South magazine. Thanks a lot for the info. I could have spent hours wandering around his shop....and what a cool guy!
