Indeed it is upside down so either turn the set upside down or enact the more dangerous head stand made the more dangerous at tea time. Just as the table is set there is a terrible crashing sound and screaming from dog, cat and housemaid ... The author covered in cream and hot tea and as if apologies were needed pointing to the computer and uttering the words...translation...upside down...sorry...

For me these are great pictures and using Library noted by Jim (Search) this can be a great thread.

AN IMPRESSIVE SWORD AND NO DOUBT THE SWORDSMAN WAS WELL VERSED TOO.

IT APPEARS TO ME THE INSCRIPTION AND DECORATION IS CUT INTO THE BLADE,( ENGRAVED ) RATHER THAN ETCHED WITH ACID. ITS VERY WELL DONE EITHER WAY.

My many thanks to Artzi from Oriental arms for releasing this beautiful sword to me from his private collection.
