In a food processor, combine the flour, mustard and salt. Add cheese and butter; cover and pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add 6 tablespoons water until a firm ball forms. Transfer to a large bowl. Chill for 2 hours or until firm. Let ham stand at room temperature for 30 minutes; pat dry with paper towels. Place on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 45 minutes.
On a lightly floured surface, roll pastry into a 17-in. x 12-in. rectangle. Place warm ham in the center of pastry. Fold short sides of pastry over ham; fold long sides over top, trimming edges as needed. Press seams and edges until smooth and sealed.
Place seam side down on a greased baking sheet. In a small bowl, combine egg and remaining water; brush over pastry. Cut decorative cutouts from trimmings if desired; arrange on pastry and brush with egg mixture.
Bake, uncovered, at 400° for 40-45 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 140° and pastry is golden brown. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing. Yield- 12-16 servings.
