Pamor thread?

[Jean]

Hello friends,
Personally and in order to facilitate further reference I would recommend that we open a separate post for each main type of pamor so that everyone could include his specimens at any time. And as advised by Alan I would further propose that we standardize the pictures as follows: full blade viewed from both sides, sor-soran viewed fom both sides, and ganja base viewed from the peksi tip.
Regards

Jean,
Sounds good. These images were taken from other threads so you get what they posted.

Well then Jean, someone will need to describe and designate the names for those main types of pamor in order to coordinate this. And while this may make some sense it does not create the one go-to thread of all pamors that was the O.P.'s original request.
Certainly images of blades in their sheaths, while perhaps nice to look at, deal with dress and not pamor so i would recommend that we refrain from posting such images.

My vote would be for a single thread dealing with only pamor.

As David has said, if we begin to categorise and split into types, we then have the difficulty of identifying the pamor in order to categorise it, and what would be the basis for the categorisation?

The whole thing would be too difficult.

Nope, I really do think that we dump everything into one basket, and if the necessity should arise whereby we need to examine a particular pamor more closely, we can lift that pamor and begin a thread for its examination.

I see Ric's pamor thread as something like an overarching reference, that can then generate further threads.

I'd also prefer one thread containing all the pamor types. Separate threads would make classification difficult and would make it more difficult for interested people to come across new patterns.

It seems to me nevertheless useful to place them in certain categories, to make it a lot easier to look something up.

(Maybe an indication of categories used in the Dutch pamor-atlas)

Beras wutah like- pamorpatterns
Spherical- pamorpatterns
Leaf shaped- pamorpatterns
Striped- pamorpatterns
Angle shaped- pamorpatterns
Other- pamorpatterns

Otherwise you get (in my opinion) a pamorthread with hundreds of pictures you have to look through,to find something if you do not know the name of the pamor

Sirek,
This is exactly my concern and why I suggested a separate thread (not post, sorry for my mistake) for each main type of pamor but it seems that the idea is not popular, no problem!
