ggil Posted June 15, 2016 Report Posted June 15, 2016 I would ask Cyril, he maintains an expansive library and likely saved these newsletters as well. Quote
lonely panet Posted June 16, 2016 Author Report Posted June 16, 2016 ok, whats his handle, because I cant find him. but if anyone whats to have a go in the mean time here is the quiz, its to arrange the tanto from oldest to youngest 1 Quote
Brian Posted June 16, 2016 Report Posted June 16, 2016 For anyone that wants to have a go at this excellent exercise, I tried to make it a bit easier to view. Brian 1 Quote
CSM101 Posted June 16, 2016 Report Posted June 16, 2016 And again. I start with 4, 15, 5, 9...And then I have to think again. Uwe G. Quote
ggil Posted June 16, 2016 Report Posted June 16, 2016 I don't think Cyril is on the board. He ought to be though, so I could finally understand what he is saying! Talking to him on the phone can be rough with the heavy Czech accent???? 1 Quote
Toryu2020 Posted June 16, 2016 Report Posted June 16, 2016 I will see if I have that issue handy. -t 1 Quote
lonely panet Posted June 16, 2016 Author Report Posted June 16, 2016 I did things abit differently, firstly by what I thought to be the correct period the by oldest to youngest 1 sue? 2 shinto 3, shinshinto 4, kamakura 5 kamakura 6 7 8 9 late kamakura 10 shinshinto 11nanbokucho 12 early muromachi 13 14 15 sue koto 16 nanbokucho 17 18 mid muromachi 19 nanbokucho 20 Quote
Jean Posted June 16, 2016 Report Posted June 16, 2016 "19 late nambanchuko" With this one Hamfish, you are entering the "best in show" competition I have corrected the other "....,chuko", you are suffering from severe dyslexia. Quote
lonely panet Posted June 16, 2016 Author Report Posted June 16, 2016 sorry, I have been tryng to bottle feed and type. prob got most wrong too. you have got me worried now Jean. have I made myself look evan sillier with 19, I know its very short. ill correct it Quote
Jean Posted June 16, 2016 Report Posted June 16, 2016 Everything is on the clear Hamfish nice try. It is very a very difficult exercise as at the same period tanto could have different sugata... IMHO 16 sue Muromachi - Mino - Kanefusa/ujifusa Quote
lonely panet Posted June 16, 2016 Author Report Posted June 16, 2016 ohhhh, I had gone with nanb, because I thought the sugata was large and a bit flamboyant. Quote
Jussi Ekholm Posted June 16, 2016 Report Posted June 16, 2016 I agree that it is fun and difficult. I'd guess the 14 could be Oei or late Nanbokucho. Some tricky ones in that mix too. Quote
