| This
page attempts to record what is known about the origin
and history of the origami design I call the The Cut
Bird-Base Turtle. Please contact me if you know any of
this information is incorrect or if you have any other
information that should be added. Thank you. A cut is used to separate the back legs. This design first occurs in the books of Isao Honda and is possibly his original design. ********** 1944 As far as I know this design, from a bird base, where the cut is used to separate the back legs, first appears in 'Origami Shuko' by Isao Honda, which was published in 1944.
