EMS on Noah Special Hanshee.

I've been meaning to cut back a bit, but this Hanshee is too special to pass by. And of course there's the need to support HI and its kamis in this earthquake catastrophe.
 
OH MAN!!!!! There's my FF! I am way toothless, down to the gums....oh well, just going to have to wait until next time......!@#!#@$#@!!

Denis - Told ya I'd sell a kidney for a Purna or Thamar Foxy Folly, and here it is...:eek:

If the handle was wood and there was a surgeon who isn't afraid of my wife, I'd put the kidney on the market right now...:p

Check out the karda's handle with the foxy folly, love the carving. I think too often the karda and chakmak are undersized and overlooked when they can be a really useful pair of tools.
 
wow am I ever sorry I missed today's dotd that noah special is something special-- nothing like it will come around until I order my own customs :( , glad it went to you dave! amazing deals today, first time in a long time I actually felt sad I missed a deal of the day lol-- very very special offerings today, and thanks a bunch to the guys who loved HI so much they gave them knives they bought so they could sell them for solid profit.

really stunning offerings, foxy, siru, super hanshee, list goes on and on :D

good eye on that dirtbiker, love that stuff myself

That hanshee and the foxy are very nice.
Gotta say, those big hanshees are pretty grim blades... No wood choppin' happening there.
 
"Crunch my buzz!!!" is a new one to me, but I did get the Done Deal on the Hanshee/Gelbu hybrid and I am feeling quite buzzed about it, especially with those Gelbu-style hollow forged fullers. The dark satisal handle looks just like my other, smaller Hanshee. I'll try to take a decent picture of them nestled together (spooning) and post it in a few days.

I've become quite a fan of Purna's work. Of the currently active kamis, he and Yuvraj are my favorites.

Oh, here's a picture of my other Hanshee. The kami is Lok. It's 18" long, 22 oz and more a "pure hanshee" design than the current hybrid.

I still do not have a price idea on it but I definitely want a kothimoda hanshee in the style you post dave
