A disease causing longing and craving for anvils no matter how many you have.

FOUND MOST OFTEN IN BLACKSMITHS

SYMPTOMS: When in sight of an anvil, bulging eyes, druling and spasmatic hand movements toward wallet.

THIS IS SERIOUS, IF YOU OR A LOVED ONE HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH THIS DISEASE COMMENT NOW.

I don't need forging bacicks I have forged a few blades, what I want is to lern more about making damascas steel.

Is the book The Pattern Welded Blade a good book for a lerner?

I like it! Kinda like my setup only I'm burning coal and have less tools. In time hopefully we'll both have all we need.
Good luck.
