Just thought I would post a couple shots of my new Bura-made GRS and its tools. So far I have had every species of AK from 12" to 20," but right now am inclined toward this one as my favorite khuk. It is 17.5" long, and exactly between the 1.5lb and 1.75lb marks on my postal scale.
Also, this khuk came all sharpened up and required only a little fine tuning to pass the Pen Paper Slashing Test. This is a little bit like getting a pre-sharpened pencil - sharpness is only a temporary condition. If all khuks came this way I probably wouldn't have climbed on to the convex-grinding learning curve (am still on it), but sharp is still nice.
