Nope, it will not upload. Might be something to do with the file type which I think is a GIF.

Anyway, to correctly view a blade the blade base should be parrallel with the ground, the gandik should be to the viewer's left, and we need to be able to see the lines that demarcate the ricikan.

The way this blade has been presented makes it upside down and back to front. Very, very difficult to form any opinion about a blade when viewed in this orientation.
