[ANSTHRLD] curiousity... question

[Bob Wade]

A "bend reversed" is a "bend sinister".  Reversed for things and Contourney for Animals flips perpendicular to the default orientation of the charge -- which is usually, but not necessarily along the vertical axis .
 
A "bend inverted" is still a "bend."  Inverted flips along the axis of the default orientation of the charge -- which is usually, but not necessarily along the horizontal axis.

Greetings,
 
Actually, the "bend inverted" should be a "bend
sinister"...and they are visually different. Changing from one to the other
would give you a CD.

Lets say...

Ex 1
sable, a bend sinister argent
Ex 2
sable, a bend inverted argent

are these 2 blazons considered the same? 

Visually they are the same but are "technically" different.... right?
