Ford Hallam - Following the Iron Brush

Ford Hallam - Following the Iron Brush Ford Hallam holds a unique position in the world of fine art metalwork. A polite notice. None of that is in the slightest way relevant to me.

He is the only non-native artist to have been adopted into Japan’s ancient decorative metalworking tradition. I'm really not interested in debating opinions on tsuba with dojo experts I'm afraid. I don't care if you think you're the reincarnation of the progenitor of an ancient school of swordsmanship, or that your years of sweating running around a dojo give you special insight, or that your Sens

ei comes from a long line of battle hardened warriors all soaked in the blood of their enemies. I'm a craftsman and artist, I work with the objects themselves and they tell me all I need to know. The overblown ego's of wannabe Samurai will only get dented here. I've done my time in dojo's and far more realistic training grounds so I offer fair warning, I play dirty, I can be very sarcastic and I will use big, foreign and unfamiliar words liberally until you either go away or I get bored and ban you.
