Khukuris are just not my thing I guess...

I wont be getting any schotch dispensers either... another one that really doesn't do anything for me.
But thats OK... just means I have more for the BloodBathAganza and the SH1a. ;) :D :D

Probably not the right thread for this, but I'll have to get at least one Scotch dispenser just so I can figure out how you hold the durn thing. :D

I'm all over the Assault Shakers though.
 
The closest thing I have to a Khukri is a Dervish Yataghan, shown here with a Ruck for scale. 1/4" 5160 gives me all the weight I want up front.

I think it'd be cool!
I have 2 HIs: an 18" AK, and a 15" Siru. The AK is about 1/2" at the spine, and boy does it chop! The Siru is thinner, but works more like a machete - that still chops...

I think a 1/2" INFI at about 18" would be awesome... :D and really pricey :eek:



I want one...
 
Hey! I have a Dervish Yataghan too... although if you were to ask me its more of a Falcata than a Yataghan...

What do you consider pricey? I would expect they'd be somewhere near what the Rucks cost...
 
I'm all in for a Busse Khuk as long as it has a comfy handle. I have an HI CAK that is an awesome chopper but unfortunatley rapes my hand as well. It's not the most comfortable thing to hang from a belt or waist strap, either. That Dervish looks fetching!:thumbup:
 
I am almost ashamed to admit it, but I have a Cold Steel Khukuri that has filled the role as back-up work machete for the last 8-10 years, if Jery made a Khukuri I would certainly buy one. I usually buy a cheap machete wherever I am working, my latest being a 17" blade Gavilan made in Colombia, it cost me 10 Peruvian soles (about 3$US), although I haven't had a chance to put it through it's paces yet to see if it's worth $3.
 
So, looking at this poll Jerry has at least 70 Khukuri's sold already! Mr. Busse - are you checkin' this out? :D

C'mon... what's a tactical knife company if they haven't made a Khukuri? ;)
 
Ya see.... I'm thinking the knives in this picture should BOTH be Busses :)

That's a Wilson Tactical Kuhkri BTW...
 
Very cool. I like the Wilson. Reminds me of Bill Siegle's Jungle Knife.

Is yours satin? The website suggests they only come in beadblast unless you get ironwood scales.

I think it's still a few months out. Bill had a 6-month wait time when I ordered. October, maybe?

I did write him and ask him to make it satin instead of coated.
 
Here's a pic of resinguy's Jungle Knife (that I missed on the Exchange :D).

The specs Bill listed were 16 5/8 overall with a 10 1/4in blade.
