    I would, and have, recommend his library as a great place to begin answering your questions about how to get started. Bob was my first teacher.

    Bob was a great man and a wizard with steel. His swords are still sought after and most in the JSA community world never let them out of their collection.

    Howard Clark would be the best current source once you've exhausted Bob's papers.

    All true and sorely missed. I saw one of those swords not a month ago here in MN. It was one of the last of Bob's swords.

    As strange as it may seem, I kinda pushed the introduction of Howard to Bob and got to handle nearly all of the last sword blades that were Howard and Bob's collaborations. They had a huge influence on each other.
