That was a little inside joke… the wife gets a little testy when the wall gets a new arrival. But in reality I’m grateful to be the caretaker of these testaments to the skill and craftsmanship for the Filipino people. As a student of Kombatan and KI the significance of theses pieces is important to keep treasured in a world that leans toward the future and often neglects the past.

And occasionally you get a new blade that you can feel part of it’s story… somehow I feel like giving them a new home and place to rest, well cared for honors the spirit of those that wielded them and maybe let’s then eat best in turn.

Make it a great day!
