We recently fulfilled a pretty big order for a customer and he sent us through some great pics and feedback upon receiving them!
In all we're looking at a rosewood handled scourge, a 16" raw chitlange with steel hardware and micarta handle, a 14" chitlange with steel hardware and rosewood handle, a 12" chitlange with stacked leather and copper hardware as well as2 custom minis with small copper guards, copper hardware and stacked leather handles. All the blades were specified with guards- the guy knows what he wants!

From the customer "I got the latest order today. The first thoughts that come to my mind are WOW, WOW and WOW!
It's difficult to pick a favorite. I really like the stacked leather handles. Every one of these creations handle like a dream.
I really like the guard on the Minis. I realize that is not traditional but for a westerner like myself it really sets the knife apart from all others. The copper furniture really makes the knives sparkle."

Hope that gets your mouths drooling!
Have a great week,
Andrew and the team at Kailash.

Thanks very much! The pensioner is one of those knives. It has a look to it that just worms its way into your head. In terms of aesthetics and functionality it's my personal favourite blade we make.

Absutely lovely group.

From first to last, I like the look of all of them.

Really killing it on the guards, and the handle treatments too.

Copper quillions on the chitlanges are ridiculously sexy.
I'm so glad the guys have found it so easy to work with! copper is just such an attractive material.

I feel like the guard are getting better with every blade the guys make, with the shapes getting more refined and the metal parts thinner. Once it stabilises at a final shape I think we might rephotograph for our website to make sure the changes come across.
