    Not strictly a "Clan" crest- or- what I did to my balmoral on Saturday pastl

    As I mentioned in a previous thread, my dojo would be celebrating 40 years as a school in Prescott last Saturday. We have a jeweler among us who designed a very nice medallion which I tacked to my balmoral (hope I don't offend any purists). I am trying to figure out Photobucket and see if I can upload a photo or two. I hope this works. Eventually I will get the Clan Innes Crest, but for now I guess will display the "Clan Ueshiba (founder of Aikido)" Crest.

    Looks fine to me. Also, sounds like this IS a clan crest for you so more power to you!

    Looks nice. It reminds me of a Highland regiment cap badge.

    "Ueshiba clan", I think O-sensei might approve.

    I think it's cool. But then of course I have a Buddhist ken tattoo on my arm, and make katana, so...
