Another 10/10 effort by one of the best and most innovative kamis in Nepal. Take is for $50 off regular -- $95 delivered to your door.

bottom -- 10/10 almost 19 inch 1.5 pound Chitlani by Kumar. Great well defined fullers, beautiful saatisal handle. Another 10/10 effort with 10/10 Chitlangi style scabbard by village sarki. Yours for $95 and that's a good price for this much knife.

Call or email.

That's the first pointy WW2 that I've seen in awhile.

 

[Bill Martino]

Want it?

 

[BruiseLeee]

I figure the "man sized" horn handle would be a little large for my dainty hands.

Kesar used to make smaller handles for folks like me.

This forum is funny; I paid 125 for my 19" chit a year ago. Now one sits here for 95.

We should get Pen to graph the prices.

I was looking for a chitlangi 19 inches. But that one seems a bit heavy for a combined self defence and light camping utility.

How is your experience with your's Munk?

 

[Aardvark]

That's the best-looking chit that I've seen in a long time. Wish I hadn't just bought one.

Eik, mine is 19" and weighs about 25 oz. I think this one is about right. Notice the handle is longer than usual for khuks. You'll get leverage there and find a comfortable grip. The blade is just heavy enough to chop, and with that handle, light enough to whip around fast. I use mine for hiking.

[Eikerværing]

Yes, I noticed that handle too. It looks right.

Hmmm... I had some info from Skeletor about weight range of chitlangis on another thread. He told me they can come even lighter and with a somewhat distal tapering. I think I'll hold until Uncle Bill comes with something he calls "quick as a cat", and then I'll grab that one.

Patience is a virtue.

Almost makes me wish I hadn't got the latest C.R. made by Bura.
That little Chit is super nice and at 24 ounces pretty light too!!!!
If I didn't have future med bills waiting on me I would've already snatched it up!!!!!!!:grumpy:
