YIPPIE!! (HAPPY DANCE)

THANKS TO ALL 3 OF YOU GUYS, FOR THOSE WHO TRIED AND FOR OUR HERO WHO FINALLY SUCCEDED.

IT IS JUST AS MUCH WORK AND USUALLY MORE TO TRY TO DO SOMETHING AND FAIL, AND YOU DON'T GET THE SATISFACTION OF SUCCESS. BUT SOMETIMES YOU LEARN SOMETHING AND MAKEING THE EFFORT IS A GOOD THING WIN OR LOSE. WHEN IT COMES TO COMPUTERS IT WOULD SEEM I SPEND A LOT OF TIME AND EFFORT BUT JUST END UP CHASEING MY TAIL LIKE A DOG AND NEVER GETTING ANYWHERE. HELP MAY BE ON THE WAY AS I HAVE 2 GRANDKIDS AND SOON THEY WILL BE BIG ENOUGH TO HELP GRANDPAW WITH THE COMPUTER.

IN MY POST "MIYAMOTO MUSASHI BOOK" THERE ARE 3 PICTURES IN THE BOOK WITH THESE SLEEVE ENTANGLERS THE T SHAPED ONE IS THERE AND TWO OTHERS DIFFERENT FROM THE ONES IN THIS POST AND THE OTHER ONE PICTURED HERE IS NOT IN THE BOOK. SO JUDGING FROM THAT THERE MAY HAVE BEEN AT LEAST 4 VARIATIONS. THEY ALSO LOOK LIKE THEY WOULD BE VERY USEFUL IN PULLING A WARRIOR FROM A HORSE SO MAY HAVE SEEN USE IN OTHER WAYS AND NOT JUST BY CONSTABLES. THE FIRST PICTURE IN THE BOOK IS OF A SAMURAI WITH A LARGE WOODEN BEAM KNOCKING ABOUT A BUNCH OF GUYS WITH THE SLEEVE CATCHERS. THE PICTURES IN THIS BOOK ARE WORTH THE PRICE.

As I noted above, three different ones was the standard grouping. That doesn't mean that there weren't variations on the type, but they properly come in groups of three, one of each design, and this continued long after they ceased to be functional and became largely ceremonial in function.
