Searching for a Coftgari artist in Europe

[Roland_M]

Dear forum members,

recently I was the lucky winner of a very high quality Pala Sword. It is made from super fine turkish wootz, with a clear and bright hamon and under the T-section only 2 mm thick (over the whole length of the blade), with a slightly reinforced tip.
The blade length is around 70 cm, the weight of the blade without guard is less than 500 gram. My initial guess was Parade-Sword but it has a few deeper and hundreds of tiny notches.

Now I'm looking for a Coftgari artist in Europe, because the original eight different coftgari are almost completly lost. But there are still shadows of the original coftgari. So it would be easy to restore it to its original style.

I will show more of the Pala after I finished it, because now it's too corroded but luckily enough the blade itself is in very good condition. This picture was made after removing the red rust with the blue japanese rust-eraser (rubber with sand). I can highly recommend this eraser.

Thanks for every advice and best wishes,
Roland
