Thanks Greg  :)

 

Valric, yes I will make some new pictures of the Naoyuki probably tomorrow or this weekend. 

This Tsuba is one of the first I have photographed and my technique was not good at this moment. Gorgeous Tsuba but these pictures don't do it justice.

Brian and mods, there are often instances with pictures uploaded in the forum that when I click on an image using my iPhone, I do not see anything. What happens is that a new Internet tab is opened and it just says 'about:blank' instead of an image which I can zoom in and review enlarged. Any help with that?

I wanted to have a closer look at the tsuba Flo has kindly posted but the images are not there to zoom in. Thanks a lot and apologies for sidetracking this visual feast, Michael
