second call on 12" sirupate if the first call decides not to complete sale. I'd like to see more small offerings, this was a good size, small kuk but large by western standards.

I hope you snagged that WWII!

Looking at the Khukri I feel that it will make a Great All around knife. The handle is the standard shape and Very pretty! The Blade is wide at the belly with a Blunt tip, It's long and Fast! To give you an idea, My Horn handled 18" WWII weights in at around 28 oz. If you look at this one, the flats seem to be a bit concave, almost as if it had wide shallow fullers. My 16.5" WWII is 21oz and has the same concaveness to it. Makes it almost as fast as my Sirupati. This big fuller? helps lighten the blade and shift the weight a bit which normally makes them faster. IMO The perfect shape with what looks to be a light fast blade should make for one Great all around knife. :thumbup:
 
That little Sirupati should be a great knife also. Looks to have a slight fuller to it also, almost like a Gelbu Special. At 9oz it's going to be fast!! I think that it would make a great back up blade, or a good belt knife.

I did indeed. It sounds like I made an excellent choice :) This fella will accompany me on all the coming camping trips this summer and will see a lot of action!
 
Congrats! Please let us know what you think of it and how you like it after you get it and put it to some use. All any of us can do is look at it and guess from past experience with Khukri's like it, how it might perform. The end user is the only one that can tell us if we got it right. Hope so, because again it looks great! Enjoy!!
 
Going out of my mind with anticipation... I want my WWII now! I think it's pretty likely it will arrive tomorrow, and coincidentally my mom has been talking about the much-needed trimming of the bush out back. Happy coincidence? :D I just wish we had a few trees as well, I don't think cutting small bushes will do it justice :(

... is it crazy to want to plant a few trees just to have something to chop down? :D
