Being slightly picky here but whenever I joined a Karate club (this was Traditional Shotokan exclusively, I know there are hundreds of variants), the belt below black was always brown with 2 white stripes (then brown, one stripe, then just brown etc)  😀

Not picky at all @Pleiades . We always welcome additional info which might add to an answer to a quiz question.

Myabe you would like to take part in the White Room Quiz ? The next one will be on Monday 20 Dec with a Xmas themed edition.

Yes possibly another time, but 'Xmas themed' is a huge turn-off for me I'm afraid!  😄
