Beautiful pieces.
I hope to see more swords and oddball pieces. The last couple of months seem to have been showing a trend towards new models, unique pieces.
 
Yangdu?

Your pictures of the offerings are approaching artistry.


Very lovely images.
 
E-Mail sent on the 15.5 inch 18 ounce villager Ganga Ram by Bura. Himalayan Rhododendron wood handle. $75 delivered.

Aunt Yangdu; I got so excited I left out the shipping information - it's in the second e-mail.:o :o
 
E-mail sent on the
"13 inch 12 ounce katunje my special by good Kami Kumar. Nice satial wood handle. $75 YBB*****"

I also had to send 2 e-mails (haste makes waste). :D
 
jmings...be very careful...it's the first email containing all four pieces of information that win the deal of the day!
 
I never heard of the Dukti Sword before. Are they more Ceremonial or what was the history of these swords???
 
Man I want that ganga ram and the dui chirra too. Oh well somebody shark it up! Those two won't do you wrong.

First Dukti I have seen with carved horn I think. All the rest were chandan. Beautiful work. If it were wood I might be tempted, but then again I'm probably not giving it a chance.

I am going to have to lay off the sharking for a while, so and I think Mike (Ad Astra) is being limited at work as well, so I leave it to you new guys to take up the slack!

Remember, a knife a week, that's all we ask! :D

Who got that Salyan? Mine was only 18 ounces - too light for any real work in this size, but it would make for a nice weapon. I'm curious to hear how much improvement another four ounces makes.
 
It's sooo tempting, That dainty Sirupati is a looker.:D

A beautiful BGRS by Bura arrived today and another one is on the way. The bevel along the spine kind of crooks a bit off to one side but it is otherwise perfect in my mind. I'll probably fix it later by draw filing the lesser side to even it up.

The thing feels so... alive!

BrentH, Look at it this way. Where else can you get a handmade sword for $200? Great snag sir. And as you say, $200 is a drop in the bucket after paying for a wedding. You deserve it!:)
