I hesitate to presume this will find its home in Wisconsin? At any rate, it is fantastic. I get a honest, historical feel from your work.
To be nobody but yourself in a world that's doing its best to make you somebody else, is to fight the hardest battle you are ever going to fight. Never stop fighting.

Petr, that is a fantastic blade. I love the texture in the steel. It looks so natural and ancient. Really looking forward to seeing this one completed.
