Great guy, truly gifted. His style reminds me the great Franz Xavier Messerschmidt. He only makes handles and is currently making one for my Reverdy integral hunter.

Thanks Patrick, in the meantime I have found his website. He is really talented. I noticed that he also uses blades from Grégory Delaunay (Elfic) among others.
