    Damned fine looking instrument. May you, indeed, be "Polychronis". Far too many Instagram "influencers," not enough genuine craftsmen. Too much "Hotel Foxtrot" "Pittsburgh" branded crap and not enough fine, accurate, durable, tools on the market.

    You read books by the likes of Ron Smith and watch videos by 'ems such as Dimitris and it brings to mind Pirsig's "lectures" about Quality, with a capital "Q".


    And what is good, Phaedrus,
    And what is not good...
    Need we ask anyone to tell us these things?


    Not sure where the herd goes from here, but I genuinely hope a course correction is in the cards.
