I can well understand your excitement Gav, and I'd like to be the first to congratulate you!!!
Well done!
While Chinese weapons are outside my usual field of study, I look forward to developing posts here to learn more on this exciting and likely very important example. I think you are extremely wise Gav, to move focus to follow your interest in Chinese weapon forms, which is truly often under represented in most arms discussions we are familiar with as well as published resources.
It's gonna be a long week Gav! and congratulations again!
All the best,
Jim
