Groomsmen's Higonokamis completed.
I went with the vice press stamp technique, took a bit of fiddling to get each one right by releasing the vice and repositioning the back end of each stamp so as to sort of come at it from different angles and ensure a good press. I foolishly started with my double barrel named mates one first and you can see it was by far the fiddliest but overall I adopted a sort of wabi-sabi strategy and didn't get too upset over the imperfect alignment.
I reckon if push comes to shove perfection could be achieved with not too much more effort but I have about a hundred other things to sort out at the moment so they'll do very nicely :)
