To those reading and gratefully those joining here, I just want to point out that I am by no means with any expertise in this field of study. I am simply researching through old notes and resources and compiling this data into the 'essays' I am writing here. This is the reason for my typically loquacious posts, I am essentially learning the material as I write, and welcome any responses questioning or correcting what I have written.
The goal, as always here, is to learn together, and I hope I can at long last gain comprehension of these 'basket hilt mysteries' that have perplexed me for decades.
To those reading I ask forbearance for the lengthy posts, and my thanks to those who join in this formidable journey into these studies.
Onward!
