Hello to all, I take advantage that the day is finished and that j have some time to write and make a small presentation
I do not remember any more, but I think that i was always fascinated by art, history and ancient weapons.
Being fascinated by it, i studied in plastic art and later, i did a robust training course of forge in school of blacksmith's trade (marshal férrant) in Brussels (Belgium)
Then, everything in begun for me when i met Gustaff Vanbellegem who sharpened kitchen knives in the restaurant or worked my wife, since, he became my friend and is him who realizes all my sheath.
Further to this meeting, He allowed me to meet meet Achim Wirtz ( German cutler) Who learnt me on the treatments of the steel.
From there, During a Knife show in Paris"SICAC" I met Daniel Vally, it was a big change for me on my work and my vision of the knife and it grace to him. DanielVally is a cutler very known and recognized in France and in Europe, is a specialist of the damasscus and the reconstruction of damasscus Merovingian.
Thanks to him pure the road which i have make grace to him.
Due to the continuation, having always liked cutlery industry American and your phylosophie of the knife, i was able to grace to a friend, to meet Joe Keeslar, What will lead me to present me to the examination Js in June, 2012.
Always fascinated by the work of Jason Knight, Linen Rhéa, I hope to be as high as this new challenge, Thanks to Jason and to Linen for them invaluable advice and encouragements.
I work as dog Master in sections anti riot since 15 year, but this is another story ...
Voila for my small presentation
Thanks to all for your warm welcome
