Jean a great set beautiful damascus on the Dagger I am glad I got to hold it.
 
Jean Louis,

Fantastic knives. It was truly a pleasure to get a chance to look them over up close.

Thanks

Hope to see you again next year

Thanks you.

I will be present next year at Blade show and it will be a pleasure to see you. (Maybe even the show in September but I'm not sure)
Closer, I will be in "FICX" (the news show in Paris on 19 and 20 June)
 
Your mosaic damascus is the definition of masterful. The pattern development is almost otherworldly.

I was a judge in the custom competition. We had narrowed the damascus knives down to Dave Lisch and you. I pushed for Dave because of the lack of distortion and overall cleanliness of the billet as far as the pattern went, and found yours to be "just" a little more random....it's easier to explain in person with a knife in front of me to be clear...so I do hope to meet you someday. The steel pattern on the dagger was cerebral.

You should be justifiably proud of your work, the knives themselves were spectacular.

Best Regards,

STeven Garsson

love that keyhole piece. My fave of the bunch, just based on these pics. Gotta find some more pictures of that one.
 
A very attractive collection. My favorites are the large Bowie and the Dagger. The steel on that Dagger is really special. I hope to see and handle your work someday.
 
Those are amazing. The fact that two are wootz, the pattern in that dagger steel, the cleanliness and the nice lines of all of them... well played, sir.
 
Thank you for your encouragement.
