You'll like the chitlangi, HD. Enough heft that it'll actually chop, but light, graceful, good narrow handle for smallish hands.
 
I wonder if tyr_shadowblade will be able to score the Seax today, or if somebody else gets it first.
 
Neat hump on the boomerang- and score on the Chitlangi, HD- I don't remember seeing a Sword of Shiva on a villager before; looks cool.

The SARGE knife and its beefy kissing cousin the R-6 are some of my favorite little knives. So much knife in such a handy package. I'm tempted by the seax. I don't have one in horn.
 
Yeah I've always wanted a chitlangi and this one seemed the right size and shape.

I had a 15" Sirupate once and I was pretty impressed with it's chopping ability for it's light weight.

I have large hands' but in a chopper most khuk handles are too wide for me.

When I chop stuff I don't grip the khukuri tightly and my ring finger and pinkie do most of the holding. That also gives you a bit of a "snap" right before the impact plus if you chop a big tree holding tightly (or if I do) it makes me all carpal tunnely. If I chop with the loose grip less impact is transferred to my hand.

On the other hand on small knives like belt knives I like a fat handle.:thumbup:

7 1/4 inch 3 ounce Sarge Knife by master kami Bura.

Love the Boomerang, too.
 
I never noticed before, but the Kumar Karda looks very much like a Finnish Leuku or Norwegian Samekniv. I'm tempted... I need to think on it a bit, but may not be able to resist if it sticks around much longer.
 
I had never seen an HI Tin Chirra by anyone but Bura and never less than 18" until last year when I got an old custom one from Jimmy that has these specs (w/ finger groove handles.) This is only the second one I've seen.

That Boomerang blade is really nice work also. That's one I would have liked to have snagged. :thumbup:

I have a karda that Dan Koster reground and convexed for me. It's pretty much a leuku now.

I'm confused, which one is the third from the left side, bottom row, light wood handle?
