New-ish here

[Luke Shearer]

Hi, everyone

I've posted a bit in the for sale forum, but other than that, I'm pretty much new here. I recently put together a pretty simple Wordpress "website", and figured it would be a good time to introduce myself. I'd really appreciate you taking a look at it and giving any advice or comments.

Anyways, just figured I'd introduce myself.

Hey Luke, toss up some pics of your loverly work, like that great pattern-welded seax I got from you in the KITH.

Looks good. I had a word press set up for me and its great to maintain. I have a little constructive criticism- I would clean up the right side where it says "meta" , "archives" etc. Also I get a bit distracted by the scroll when you click on images. I like when the photos pop out seperately from the site.

Welcome, Luke. You have come a long way as a blade smith in a very short time judging your age by looks. Your work posted on your web site is very impressive.

Luke - I do believe the force is with you.(as if you haven't heard that one before.)

That birch bark handled scandi is beautiful!

Thanks for the criticism. Its exactly what I was looking for. I'll see if I can figure out how to resolve those issues.
