Very nice work on the pattern-welded scramasax... this one is my favorite. Nice no-nonsence designs in all your blade. I would like to see more pattern-welded work. Happy

Nice and clean looking site: The pictures look a bit small but since clicking on them shows larger versions I don't think it's a problem.

To those looking at the site the first time I would just mention that English text follows if one scrolls down the page.

With the smaller captions the English version is right next to the French but might be missed if one only glances at the site.

Just a risk that someone in a hurry might just notice the large French paragraph at the top and not notice the English.

Nice work. ( Both the product and the site. ) Cool

Antoine, it looks like you have some nice pieces for sale. I have one small suggestion for your site. For each of your offerings, you show:
- first, a photo (or several photos),
- second, a description in French,
- third, a description in English.
The French and English descriptions are separated by a :: symbol. That separator is appropriate, but there is no separation between the English description and the next offering. So, at first glance, it seems that the English description goes with the next offering. In order to avoid this small potential for confusion, I suggest that you provide some sort of separator, such as a border, between the English description and the next offering. I hope you find this helpful.

Hi!
Thank's for the input guy's.

Jean, I wanted to put some difference between french and english text, like color, but I unfortunately can't. That's the thing with blogs, free, open to immediate feedback, very easy to manage (even for a total computer illiterate like me) but not too flexible...

Good point Steve, I'll try to find a way.

Thank's a lot for your observations!

Antoine M.
