Better photos this time around...looks like my canon likes natural light much better...

Well, got them both out for a short hike with my boy and a little choppy-choppy. Don't think you can see the 2 sticks in my son's hand..his 2 "knives"!

The first round the Tamang just smoked the BR- 13 chops to 20. I did a few more rounds with thicker stock and it was closer, but the tamang would still top my rat by 2-3 wacks on average! Plus...I'm still working on my kukri wrist snap...when I get more practiced the tamang will be a killer!
