mostly HI, y'all can name them, or try :) some of these are super rare, old, handed down from other members, users, keepers, loved, safe queens, and so on :) not a bad one in the bunch...

Nice collection! As an HI noob, I'm surprised to recognize most of them (I done my homework!), but the blade shapes are fairly distinctive. There are two in the second pic with no cho; who made these khuk... er, bent knives? ;)
 
7th and 8th respectively from left, a KH "McCurdy" custom and a Sher "Attitude Special."

I would guess... :p

that the 30" kobra on top? 25"? siru?

looks awesome. you have too many foxies. i'd be willing to help relieve you.
 
Joe, let me take a stab at this. You have some sweet ones there.

Top: Sgt Khadka 18" Chiruwa Samsher; not sure but looks like a 20" Sgt. K Samsher and I thought I was the only one with one of these!; three 17" Foxy Folly's; 10, 14 and 18" BDC's; 15", 18, 21.5" and 25" Ganga Rams, all with really authentic shapes to them. That 18" is an old one for sure. Also really like that 21.5", and am sure the 25" is the Neem we were speaking of. I have it's twin in an antler, without handle rings. BTW measure it carefully and I'll bet you find it is actually 24.5"; 21" chitlangi, and 19-20" Gelbu Special w/ evergreen? handle. (Remember missing this one.)

Bottom: 30" Sirupate at the top; pair of Sgt. Khadka 13" Balance models; 15" Horn and wood BAS pair; HI Bowie and HI Cleaver; J. McCurdy custom 16" kukri (wood?; I have #16 in horn, but this looks very nice.); 18.5" Sher Attitude; SGT Khada UBE! (groan!); 20" kobra; something cool and you had better tell me what it is! (SGTK CAK?); 18" WWII with great classic shape to it; M43; 18" YCS with carved chandan handle; 20" Junge; 20" AK; very nice 20" CAK.

Really nice Ganga Rams, esp. the 18" and 21.5" ers. All great knives.

Thanks for sharing. :thumbup:

Hmm...you don't have an 18th Century model? ;)
