Any update? I found this and thought it might help, but it's a little late now.

Will keep it short. Me Naomi is a gent and a lovely fellow. Welcomed me and the wife to his home and was very amicable:). We had a few communication difficulties but I managed to make it out with a couple of strops. Very little photos of the time there I am afraid.

Congrats Rami, mate, that is sensational, have to get a few blokes together one of these days in our part of the world. They are bloody addictive these strops, I've, as they say in Baseball, 'put up a crooked number' on my collection. (You know you are nuts when you have a 'collection' of Kanayama's) I've 2 x #70's a #10(with suede piece) and of course the #80000. But I'd trade one for having met the master himself. Great stuff and good stropping. Bob
i just got my 70k from aframes a couple days ago too. its still in its wrappers in the box. not sure when ill unpack it. might just stare at it. =P
i have a 10k that i use daily with TM d-ring ends that i attached (thanks tony!). i love the strop but found that i hated the natural grip.
enjoy your self Rami
Congratulations Rami, your extremely lucky to have met such a great strop maker.
Check out the local flea markets for razors too, you never know your luck. Google Tokyo flea/antique market and loads of info comes up.
