And you do a damn fine job !!!

Hi,

Glad you like them. There are quite a few pics on my site-did you click the thumbnails?

I've got kabutos on the horizon of my schedule at last, although I've been collecting requests for them for like 4 years! I have several design improvements in mind for the new ones, and hope to add another pattern or 2.

Ruthardus-I like your "flare". How well do the leather fukigayeshi hold up to combat? I've considered multiple ways to make them combat-worthy, but pretty much end up with one of 3 answers: 1) Take them off before fighting. 2) They're disposable. 3) Turn them all the way 'round 'til they're pretty much tubes (but you lose the look that way).

I have looked at all of them. They are very nice.

Clang and ruthardus, I have been long looking at your work. Both of you have been doing stunning work. I am about halfway through a zunari project. Sadly my craftsmenship is nothing in comparison. Keep up the good work.
