The whole cut can be treated as a trendy version of the plain toe blutcher. ^_^

Yeah, neither of those is a blucher... Both have closed lacing ==oxford
^^ look up balmoral vs blucher on google. Some great pics to show the differences.

Regarding the blucher v. balmoral classification and the Carmina wholecut's classification in that system: I appreciate the information supplied and I particularly appreciate Junior taking the time and effort to find and post the pictures from oldleathershoe.com and otherwise. I am going to do some searches to better understand how wholecuts are balmorals and not bluchers. I certainly get it that if a blucher requires open lacing and open lacing requires the additional two pieces on either side of the tongue to which the laces are, then the Carmina wholecut does not have those pieces and thus would not be blucher. . It also seems clear, however, that the picture of the Koji Suzuki Junior supplied -- which is described as a wholecut -- has those two additional pieces on either side of the tongue and sure looks like open lacing.
