Thanks, P. F.!
Jay,
Argiope is a remarkable weapon. When I first saw it on your web site
I knew that I would like the radical orientation of the blade to the
hand. But that did not prepare me for the feel of the knife. It fits
perfectly into my grip. It feels like an extension of my arm. I am
not an expert, but I have handled a fair number of knives and
swords. I believe this is only the second time I’ve held one that is
truly balanced, but it goes beyond that. The beauty of the weapon,
the way it meets the hand, and the balance, are all part of
something more. It’s almost as if it has a soul. That must be why it
has a name. I own other weapons, and I have always sought quality.
Argiope, however, owns me. I’m just it’s keeper for a time.
Thanks doesn’t cover it,
--P.F.
P.S. I’ll have another order for you shortly.
