Thank you Yvain, much appreciated. The article was written almost 70 years ago, and before Oakeshott, so it is understandable that Lohte's knowledge at the time would be outdated by now, with plenty of inaccuracies. However, it is still fascinating for me as a takouba collector because it provides an idea of some of the older blades that can be found in takouba mounts.
