That is sad. It seems like people of that talent often get more honor after they have passed. Thank you for the links. It seems like he lived a very interesting life. My condolenses to the family.

Some of these pieces are simply breathtaking. What craftsmen! My respect for Middle Eastern swords has been growing with all I have seen on this sight, but some of these are just incredible. Thanks for sharing.
My condolences as well, it takes a special person to develop this level of skill.

Hi Randall,
Thank you very much for your kind words. I am really sad about this. We are all sad. We have been planinng many things with him, he wanted to present a very nice piece in the Handicraft Competition soon. That piece will never be finished. Very sad. His character was above all a very nice and gentle one. This is a major loss indeed.
Kind regards

Wow what incredibly beautiful work, in Bronze as well as Steel. I am both amazed and saddened. My condolences to his family, to the world for losing this gifted artisan.

Hard to say much more than what has already been said: The artwork is incredible.
Also my condolences to the family but it is a good thing to have left a legacy of beautiful weapons that will continue to be prized and admired for a long time to come as well as having transmitted the skills to his son and students: Maybe a small comfort but a comfort all the same. 
You can easily give up your freedom. You have to fight hard to get it back!

My condolences to his family and friends. It's always a loss for us all when a talented craftsman passes, whether or not we knew them personally.
