Jim McDougall, I couldnīt find my questioning to a previously statement you made, and I must make a public apology of my mistake. I found a source for your statement about arabs importing european blades into their dominions in Al-Andalus in actual Spain in the early stages of their domination there. I have not read previously that source, so it is my mistake to deny such big imports in the early history of muslim rule in that area. Why did you not mention it to me before, when I asked for? I wonder to which extent in time these imports were necessary.
Regards
Gonzalo
