Has everyone read Kevin Cashen’s “Anatomy of Hype” article?
From a bladesmith’s perspective, it’s a great and very true reading of some of the hoo-ha that typically floats around, from a swordsmith of inspiring skill who has a deep interest in and understanding of what makes steel work well in blades.
No April fool’s joke, but a very amusing read:
