Wooden daab blades at the Smithsonian

My pleasure!

Thank you for the translations. I made fairly detailed measurements and individual photos of the larger blades, and of a couple representative small ones. I will post the full pictures and measurements of the ones with the writing which I posted here.

I plan to create a page on my web-site dedicated to this little collection, with all the photos and measurements that I took. Seeing the whole blade will probably make the descriptions make fore sense ("whirlpool" may refer to a whorled protrusion near the tip, as seen, for example, on the middle blade of the second photo).
