Thinning my collection some to cover equipment costs for bladesmithing, can't afford to collect and create at the same time.
All pieces except for the M-43 are un-used in original HI condition, standard polished finish, although as with all HI stuff, there are light sheath marks etc, that comes with the nature of the scabbards. All prices are shipped USPS priority with delivery confirmation
1. HI Bura Tarwar, beautiful tarwar by the Royal Kami, stout wood handle. This one shows some sheath marks, and a tiny tarnish spot, but easy to clean up. 29.25" OAL, 39oz dead on. $250
2. Rare Shop 1 Dragon Engraved AK, 16" OAL, no kami marks (which is common for these old pieces), but HI's mark is clear, very old deeply engraved AK, with highly figured almost translucent horn handle, pics cant do this one justice. Couple of very small dings on one side of the handle, I think it came this way originally. Decorative pommel style seen in the older shop 1 AKs. $200
3. Kerambit by Kumar, from the limited American Antler run, horn scales show gorgeous purple hues, beautiful fuller work. $125 SOLD!!
4. Kumar Karda by Sher, 10" OAL, 8oz, also from the American Antler run, stout blade by the Tiger as usual, some recurve to the shape, stout handle. Tiny spot of tarnish on the right face, easy to polish off. $75
5. User M-43 by Santosh Kami, beautiful beefy rosewood handle, white hardware. 18" OAL, 32oz, perfectly balanced, will stand up on one finger. Love this blade but I've replaced it with an even lighter one. This is one of the best overall M-43s I've ever seen however, it's unbeatable. No significant wear, it could be Spa'd if someone desired by this one screams to be used. $125 SOLD!!!
More pics available by request.
