Those "little" Sirupatis are really nice...light and quick. I really like mine.

Anything similar coming in soon? Looks like I was just a little too late. If only I'd logged in this morning!!

Seriously, if you have any kind of waiting list please put me down for any 12-15" AK blem or villager. (And I LIKE wood handles, too, if you get any.)
 
Do you ever get 12" village sirupati? If you do, about what is their price range roughly?
 
12" AK's?

Was this a one-off deal or are you back to making the baby AK's as a regular item in your line?

To me, the 12" didn't seem like much of an AK, or even a khuk.

To be sure, it was the undisputed workhorse of the baby khuks, the King of the 12"ers. You ain't getting more khuk in less length than one of these.

But I'm beginning to understand your sentiments about any khuk less than 14/15"s being a baby and kinda not a real khuk, Uncle Bill. I said understand, not agree with. I love having the babys around.

They are like well loaded 380's and 32's. Not the 357 or 40 caliber service pistol, but pretty darn effective for their size. An under 4" folder or neck knife is like the 22/25 mouseguns.

I keep a partially packed suitcase. A 20 oz. 17" village chainpuri and a 12" sirupati are permanent residents there, along with an (auto) 9mm and a 32, or a (revolver days)41 and a snub 38.

 
We keep a few 12 inch AKs around. There are a few people who want them. I generally tell them the knife is too small but as usual my customers and pals get what they want and don't listen to me a whole lot.

Ice, I never know what sort of villagers we will get. It is always a surprise.

Rusty, you must have been a good Boy Scout. You sound prepared.
