Crispus,
thanks for your detailed thought and I think you're right on! I should have taken a better look at the imagebase, it's all there :oops:
So, let's try to boil this down and discuss it from here - how about:
BLADE TYPE
- type A
- type B
- type C
TANG
- frame tang
- rod tang
GRIP
- thin organic inner plates with triangular section metal grip plates
- thicker organic inner plates covered by thin iron 'skin' either in two pieces or one piece folded over
- fully oganic grip
SHEATH
-frame sheath
-metal enclosed sheath (better wording?)
-metal front plate sheath (better wording?)
DECORATION (by Obmann's grouping)
-Group 1
-Group 2
-Group 3
-Group 4
-Special Forms
NOW KEPT
(should we have this?)
Anything else we need? Place found perhaps? Thanks for all opinions!
