Size next to BAS.

Very nice work by Sher.

It is ALOT heavier than my 20.5" GS, but then the spine is thicker and the blade is wider so I would think it would be.

The handle feels very good and the balance is tip heavy like the AK's so it should be a good chopper. It is quick in the hand and I can hear it move through the air so it could make a great weapon if the need ever comes along.

Have you weighed the baby?

No I don't have a scale, but you can feel the difference.

Uncle Bill said it was 2 pounds.

And I beleive it.

 

[Bill Martino]

Thanks for report from he field and good pix. Two pounds sounds right.

 

[gshamr]

I have one and it is my favorite khukuri. It looks and handles great.

 

[Coonskinner]

I only have three Khuks, but the Chitlangi is my hands down favorite.

It has a balance and feel like no other.

 

[Ankerson]

They are nice aren't they.

 

[Rusty]

They are all my favorites.

Just like the old days when you took the Mustang exit and heard the hostess call "Company, girls!" and had a bevy of a dozen beauties to choose from. ( At least, that's what I've been told. Pure hearsay, and I couldn't swear to it of course. )

Shame that all they have out the Mustang exit nowadays is the BLM wild horse adoption center.

Them was the good ol' days fer sure.

Good to see more nice work from Sher. You must be proud!
I just may have to get a Sher Chitlangi for myself. I have said in previous posts that I am fond of the closed cho notch in Khukuris. Cheers!
