I must say that I 'am amazed and somewhat saddened at the same time, I just watched videos on cerakote, acid etching, and now this, I am also thinking of woodworkers, leather workers and anyone that is a craftsman. In this world of everything is fast and easy, Disposable, I' am hoping their will be a new generation that will learn from all these wonderful craftsman, I hope skill and quality such as this does not become extinct. what was once pretty normal has now become a luxury in all trades. When was the last time you bought something with character and quality that made you feel good just looking at it, owning it and knowing you'll pass this down in your family from generation to generation? for me its been too damn long..... I hope all these crafts have someone to pass on down too. God Bless
