[Sca-cooks] Damascus Question

[Elaine Koogler]

This is the fellow who makes the documented, 9th century "spork" that I 
spoke of some time back. Our eating utensils, which included his 
original version, disappeared some time back (has since resurfaced!), so 
we visited him at Pennsic and found that he has made his versions larger 
and of stainless, which makes them easier to care for...material not 
period, but the design is!
