please accept my apologizes about the delay to welcome you, specially that you are a compatriot but some rush moments, prevented me to be fast as usual as you have mentioned, you are a "knife-maker blacksmith", very interesting news, but if it's not to much indiscreet, where are you established in France ? unfortunately, I'm not a collector of African weapons, I mean, "Black Africa" as we said in France, I'm a collector for Islamic weapons, included those from "North Africa" we'll have anyway, a common area in the Sub-Sahel zone about your "English expression" don't be worry, ... here they are already well habituated ... with me, to read a "funny English" Amicalement à + Dom |
