Takouba owners needed - want to expand database at takouba.org

Iain · 6th December 2011, 12:23 AM

Hi All,

Some of you may be familiar with my http://takouba.org website - mainly started as a place to display examples of my takouba along with some articles.

I've always been open to submissions and envisioned the site has being a hub for takouba enthusiasts. Right now, my own swords, or swords that I've owned before, make up the bulk of the database. But I'd like to keep expanding the database of swords - for that of course I need you!

If you own a takouba I'd love to be able to add it to the database - http://takouba.org/collections. Personally I think every example is important to document. Normally folks send in some photos and any comments they might have and with their approval I try to add whatever comments I can as well.

If you'd like to let me add your sword/s please contact me at iain.norman@gmail.com

I'd really appreciate any submissions, these swords are my passion and I'm eager to keep the website going at a steady pace even if I can't personally be buying something new every other month (not that I wouldn't like to!!!).

Best regards,

Iain Norman
