I just pinched myself and appear to be awake, but I'm not sure. This is madness!

Both. Mostly Tsimi though, I think he's finally lost it.

I just picked up my new Pen Knife, what an amazing little blade. A bigger handle than the one shown in my pic, and a little longer overall. Pointy too! Fit and finish is perfect, especially after having to scrape the rust spots off my first one The scabbard is a great press fit too.
My only quibble is the karda and chakma are approaching an unusably-small size
The difference from those with my first Pen Knife is very evident. The shop may need to set some minimums, that even if the khuk is below a certain size, the K&C must be at least XX size.

I just got my pen knife today. That's a really neat design! The 2 I got were only really sharp from the tip to about an inch back. The rest was really super dull, but I messed around with both of them with the sandpaper and strop and both are now shaving sharp all the way down to about 1" shy of the cho
This knife chops really well. I was surprised. The shape of the edge is great. I wish some of the bigger ones had this kind of edge. Really bites in, but it isn't so thin that it bends.
I agree about the little karda and chakma. Be better if they weren't even on there.
This is a really cool little knife. Does the machete thing real well to. Went through some 1/4 -1/2 inch branches with one swoop.
Thanks Yangdu for making these available at that good price. I probably never would have tried one without the special on them you ran.
