FlorianB Posted February 3, 2014 Report Posted February 3, 2014 Dear Eric, dear Florian, I have to admit that I am the guy who wrote the lines about the “Aesthetics in Japanese Sword” and I’m honoured to read that You appreciate my thoughts. Maybe You know that since the 1980s a lot of papers had been issued in the NBTHK-EB by several members. However, nearly all those articles deal with the technical aspects of Nihonto and as long as I am interested in the Japanese Sword I struggled with its artistic value. At least I tried to put my own ideas in the paper mentioned above and published it several years ago for both the members of the NBTHK-EB and the Nihonto Club. Later I also enclosed it slightly modified in the german edition of the first NC cataloge. Your comments suggest that my lines are of a certain use. Finally, it is interesting to have a namesake in this message board who starts his own efforts to gain knowledge in Nihonto. FlorianB Quote

FlorianB Hello Florian, like i´ve always stated, i´m not you!(just kidding) I read your article in the NC catalogue you mentioned, it was quite enjoyable. Is it a problem that i use the same signature? The "B." is only my middle name so i could easily change that... Regards, Quote
FlorianB Posted February 4, 2014 Report Posted February 4, 2014 Is it a problem that i use the same signature? Hi Florian, I think, there’s no need to change signature. Latetly I’m not very active at the NMB and if we are mixed up - so what? If You like to exchange thoughts feel free to send me a mail. FlorianB Quote
