RE: cool site

I had the privilege of spending an afternoon with this gentleman. He is a
fantastic craftsman and his shop in the Armoury is quite incredible. At
that time, he was talking about doing a video demonstrating the craft, but I
haven't checked to see if he was ever able to do it. His and his worker's
work is some of the best I've ever seen.
