Jim-
Any time you want to send your blades to this art-teesty type to make sheaths for them. I do spec work as well as custom.
15 lbs for a European sword eh? The last original European sword I did a sheath for was a Landsknecht (I know the original's weren't sheathed but...) and it weighed maybe 5 pounds. Beautifully balanced.
Larry-I don't get tooo cranky with those who aren't on my $hite list so you'd have been OK. Course you would have had to LISTEN to my rant rather than read it.
