I have known about the Golden Ratio for a long time. But I had not heard of the Silver Ratio, aka “Yamato-hi,” meaning “Japanese Ratio.”
Japan Style - The Silver Ratio and Japan
Thus far today I am meeting Dr. Bert Herring’s D.I.E.T. (Did I Enhance Today) concept.

I always thought the golden mean/ratio was derived from natural pattern. I suppose their is always variance but if true the silver might be aesthetic liberty, where golden might be more of an abstraction to mimic of nature.
To be truthful, I am not sure if I considered using golden ratios in my flies. I suspect there might be something to it especially if one to market the flies to humans. I guess this is something we reflect on . It is pleasing to make a perfectly proportioned fly, perfect order. It is such joy…where the fish want em chewed and crippled.

Japan knife and American knife are both beautiful
even if the shape is different due to the difference in application
I think it’s because has been refined as a tool
I think that is kebari is sturdy and easy to use,
If beauty is felt
and it will approach completion as a tool
