top -- 20.5 inch 41 ounce AK bu Kumar. We generally don't see the Chiruwa style in this size but the kamis make what they like, not what I ask for. Usual very good work by Kumar. Only thing I can find wrong with the entire rig is 5 minutes worth of rust at the top of blade. Save $50. Delivered to your door for $145.

center -- Beautiful 18 inch 29 ounce AK by Bura. Perfect execution. What more can you say? Karda is worth $95 but you can get the entire rig for that price saving yourself $50.

bottom -- 21 inch just over two pound Chitlangi by Shanker. Beautiful saatisal handle full of burl. Sher edge. Fine work. Good knife. Only problem I see is a cosmetic one. Shaker put more edge on the left side than right. Unusual for this kid but it shouldn't affect performance at all. Take this one home for $95.

Call or email.

Finally. I was holding out. But it was gettting tough:(. Someone took the temptation away, thanks:)
 
Amazing...the chitlangi is still here...

I would have thought that one to be the first one gone. :confused:

Especially seeing how fast they've been going lately...

And a burl handle...!!!
 
21" Chit for 95!?!?!/!?! Aaaaugh!

Perhaps I should stop browsing this forum until I'm gainfully employed again...the agony...

That's funny. I thought the exact same thing lately. The Chitlangi should have been the first one gone (my favorite Khuk), and I shouldn't look at the daily specials until I have a job again. Why do we have to look, and torture ourselves?

I think if the special was soooo good I would sell blood to get it.
