Hi Kai,

I totally agree with you, but I thought it would be nice to put the images of tammens in this thread, because they were the only one I could find in my books I use as reference, (give it a quick search though) with that smooth silverwork on the handle.

Best,
Maurice

I suggest the moderators move it to the warung than?
