Welcome to the forum, ac112. That's a good jump on the Bamboo Cutter. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. We'd be glad to hear about how it performs and what you think of it.

:D That was the first "R" rated movie I ever saw in the theater. One of the best I ever saw too.

I miss good movies in the theater, not sure why they can't make them anymore.:confused:

Cheers stickfred,
never thought i get in on a deal living in the UK with the time difference, but got lucky this time. Just like to say hi i have been a bit of a lurker but this is my second HI purchase the first being 16.5 CAK and that was impressive enough and starting to develop the HIKV already. I would just like to add that this is one of the most inspiring forums (if not the most) i have ever come across i only discovered it very recently and as such i have missed so much (luckily there are archives) there is no childish flaming or posturing or any other nonsense - just enthusiastic members

Grats on the Bamboo Cutter and Welcome to HI, I have one and love it. You have picked two great blades, the CAK is one of my favorites. Enjoy and hope more come you way.
 
ac112,
16.5" CAK is a great starter. It's good to see you're well on your way. Has that CAK got to chop anything down yet?

I feel like a lurker, too, 'cause while I'm watching the Forum for the latest posts and the latest DOTD, I'm working my way through the Archives. After reading approx. 2 years of postings (from oldest through page 62) has given me a heck of an education. You'll be pleasantly surprised if you get a chance to read through them.

Nice. In spite of their relative thickness, I love Kumar Kardas. Good sharkin', oz! :thumbup:

Same here; those big Kardas are a great value. In size and shape, they're very similar a Leuku, but heavier duty and having a handle better sized to American hands than most of what you'd see out of Finland. I'd prefer birch as a handle material, although that's not a huge issue.

I quite enjoy it when KK"s have carved horn or wood handles... the first one Yangdu sold me had all these curls and lines and abstract flourishes carved into its handle. :thumbup:
 
yeah, I can read and have been corrected plenty. Sorry I am not better with these things. :o

I have one of those :-) One of my first H.I. blades. I keep it with the camping gear, or when I'm going to a picnic or cookout.

The 15.5 inch 20 ounce Ang Khola by by Lok Kami is a nice feeling knife, fast. Someone needs to jump on it. The Karda and chakma are not lost, the scabbard was made without them.
