Let it be known that david beat bawanna to the bonecutter. Well done, very well done.
 
Well after not being able to log in for a couple of days, BFC must hate me:p, these are some screaming deals.

A guy looking for one khuk to take with him on a camping trip could do way worse than that WWII. Very handy blades.

Do you use the Mozilla Firefox web browser? There has been a problem for the past two days with Bladeforums dropping logins done through Firefox. A number of people, incuding me, have posted about this on the Tech Support page. The problem seems not to occur if you use the Chrome web browser. In my case the problem began right after I did an update to the newest release of Firefox.

The problem got worse a little while ago, and now I can't login to BF at all through Firefox. Maybe a sign that someone in tech support is working on the problem. I hope.

This probably belongs in the Cantina, but since Steely mentioned it I want to point out that it is a widespread problem. (I'm posting this via the Chrome browser.)
 
HI is absolutely amazing! I went back and started at the beginning of what I can pull up on the forum! It was 2002 and over 100 pages later, I'm into about April of 2003 when Uncle Bill was posting knives. It's unbelievable that most of these knives haven't gone up in price from 15 yrs ago!!!!
I'm amazed!!!!

I'm having the same problem on my iPhone!
 
Im using Firefox with out problem. Hmmm? I havent updated yet but they havent asked either. They usually pester the heck out of ya when you are using an outdated browser. That $40 VUK is a sweet deal for someone. Im waiting on my Bamboo Cutter so I abstain.
 
I was having issues but they seem to be better now. I found if I clicked forum first, then it would open the log in screen. It sometimes wouldn't let me stay logged in but it was better than not getting in at all.

I'm homeless without being able to visit HI ya know?

I hear ya my friend! I almost always deny all them auto update software requests (check the "notify me before update" box) and do it myself when it gets stable and proven if it ever does. They dont do much beta testing anymore but just throw the crap at you and read the complaints then they might fix it:poop:. They get paid way too much money in my opinion for the crap they put out. I think they should lock them software dudes up in a room for thirty days with their own software and force them to use it across all platforms and fix it before they get paid for it. All them problems would then be gone day one! It used to be called compatibility testing but I think they call it regression testing nowadays. OOOps. Im not in cantina am I..Pardon me. Ill delete it tomorrow;) Ill update now for the heck of it and report back. Lets see what happens?
 
There are sweet deals in there. That is a great looking WWII and $40 for a kerambit is a steal!
 
Shann. The Kerambit is $68. If it was $40 it would be gone already i promise:p Thats still a killer deal but i already have one. They are usually over $100.

Woops was looking at the Purna. Still a great deal. I think mine was 100 or 125.
 
The thing I love about the HI kerambits is they are completely useable for regular knife chores. They aren't a dedicated fighting knife. Most kerambits while cool looking aren't much use for anything but cutting other people.
I'm a lover not a fighter and if I do fight I don't plan to use a knife unless it's all I got.
I rely on my wit and good traction tires for defense.

You are absolutely right sir! Id bang the crud out of mine to split stalks of wood or whatever. It can take it. Its also a good carver and even good for draw cuts. Chopping no but most other small tasks it can do well! Amazingly utilitarian!
