I do believe that Phill's swords are the finest cutting swords I have ever handled

Really nice piece
 
I've owned a few of Phill's blades but never a sword. Seeing this video and Joe's comment makes me regret never having ordered one. Thanks

I hope you do not mind me posting some of Phill's swords up

Joe,

It is a pleasure to see some of Phill's best work. You are good caretaker of his work.
 
Good post AVigil.

VERY cool photo, Joe. Who took that? great focus and timing.

You appear a bit younger? :D

I was :)

I was in my mid 20's to early 30's when I was playing with swords and knives on a daily basis

That's when I had time :)

I miss the training but my teacher went back to Japan and I just do not have time anymore

The closest I get to any training these days is some knife work with some NJ Swat Cops

Here I am in my early 20's at my first tournament in NY with my teacher

Do I look a little nervous :)
