  So far none of us have found a good book exploring steel making or pattern welding in mainland SE Asia -- yet!  Mark has some bibliographic information on his web site, as I recall, and there are tidbits in a fair number of diverse sources. But nothing substantial.
 
 Perhaps you will stumble on the "mother lode" and share it with us all.
