Wootz ingots, where do they all come from?

Jeff, don’t worry there is still quite a lot of magic left, and I think the old blades are fantastic. With the warning you have given us, I think it must be getting difficult selling on a place like eBay. See also what Ric. Furrer writes on SFI http://forums.swordforum.com/showthr...threadid=59076

Hi all,
Great blades Jeff, and Lew's new one is beautiful too. Just to let you all know...research on the Mill balls is still taken place but no conclusions yet. Particularly if they can be forged (in many senses of the word) by those in the know. Also, I am in touch with Ivan (via a translater), the maker of the wootz blade from Russia. If all goes as planned I may be meeting with him next month so any questions are welcome. Of course, I will ask him about his process.
