*drool* another khadka UBE... love mine!!! somebody should jump on it quick :eek:

sweet m43 & baby bdc... very nice additions to any collection :D :thumbup:
CONGRATS to all to snag one or more of these awesome deals :)
 
that baby bdc doesn't look like it has two chirras. looks like a streamlined ak. maybe a baby chiruwa ganga khola or AK-43. very cool.
 
grand baby chit still available... would make a very nice gift for any knife enthusiast :thumbup:

EDIT: ok time to fess up... who got the m43 and UBE? :D
 
32 oz. is heavy for an M43, but still very manageable. I've noticed that Vim usually goes 30+ oz. on his, while Kumar always kept his 26-28. I have to say that I think Vim outshines Kumar when it comes to this model anyway.

Nice snags. I really hope we see more UBE's from Sgt. Khadka.

I bought a Baby BDC by Bura also and it had only one fuller on each side....as shown in today's picture. Looked like a small Ang Khola. On one side of the blade there was a hint of a second fuller, but only a hint. The other side of the blade had only the one fuller. I was and am confused. If anyone can shed any light on this, I'd sure appreciate the help understanding.
 
well this isn't a mass produced product. the model is never exactly the same every time. this builds up a tolerance for differences which i'm guessing just stretches the more you see it and these people have seen more knives than i'd care to guess. variations will come and go under the same name. this is just made up and i'm half conscious.

however, i do prefer this to the double fuller. just seems like more beef.
 
Call me crazy, and I mean no offense to anyone, but if one starts out to build a bicycle and the end result has only one wheel, it's not a bicycle. By definition, a bicycle should have two wheels and a dui chirra should have two fullers, as I understand the term anyway. Please understand, I'm new here and easily confused.
 
Good looking Baby Grand Chitlangi by Vim. Congratulations to the new owner. I got only last week and it's a beauty too.
 
Just call the ones with only one fuller on each side a BDC - Bura Daily Carry

Call the ones with two fullers on each side a BDC - Bura/Baby Dui Chirra


Simple enough right? :D
