Default Awesome

Congratulations Michael!!

You can not believe how happy I was and surprised I was when whilst talking to Philip on another matter, he mentioned he was putting the finishing touches to some of the lower laying areas of the twistcore pattern Moro kris you obtained from me....as I expressed previously, I got goose bumps...it means a lot to me to see an old and rare warrior like this Kris reborn.

Personally I think it is awesome that you had decided to restore this wonderful and old example of a Moro twistcore. The talents of Philip and Charles are certainly recognised as being at the top of their game and it shows.

Thank you for the before and after shots too, it shows wonderful insight from all involved and it is something many of us would never get to see or understand the methodical approach it takes to achieve an outstanding result.

I would love to see a thread started on completed restoration projects, I know a few of us have them and I too have one ear marked for Philip in the next quarter.

Again Michael, very nice, you must be happy!!
