hi,
there is been asked if i wanted to give some information about me and about my work.
my name is Christophe Siliacus and i polish Japanese swords
this is not a easy task because i say that polishing is not only in your hands but also in your mind, your body, your breathing, it is simply YOU
i am now almost 60 years and have about 30 years of experience, i have done terrible things in the past, like using acid, just because i did not had the skil to do any better.
i only work the traditional way
and still i dont have all the skils, compared with the profesionals in Japan.
i have had tips and tricks from Zenon van Damme,but never link my name to his ....HE NEVER TOUGHT ME, i wish he did.
i always try Zenon to judge my work, because he is the only one i know, who knows were he is talking about
once i had a hudge complement of Mishina Kenji, who told me that my work was not bad at all.
but to make a long story, short, i did it most off all by myself and i am still learning.
this is the first time for me to tell everybody what i do, not how, this would be boring, besides that, the internet is filled with people like me, only i am not such a commercial man.
my email adres is polijster@gmail.com
you can ask everything there
best regards
Christophe Siliacus
