Recent article talking briefly about some styles that don't get a lot of press.

interesting stuff, i truly enjoy rare styles and weapons that are overlooked due to their impractical nature. i feel that the exotic material is a great way to understand, preserve, and gain respect for a culture. good to see that people continue these practices. i hate to see everything get standardized and weak and lose its origins.
