Wow, those look amazing as usual, If I had the funds, I'd be all over the bonecutter >.<
 
tjarlz, this'll be a close one. Just sent an email on the CAK as well, just can't help myself. Khuks really are like crack. No worries if you beat me though, I've already got two on the way.
 
those copper pins are sure nice....

Where's the guy who wanted a Cherokee Rose? Mine came today and all I can say is...
:eek:WOW!:eek:
 
whoever got that Super CAK is one lucky dude! That thing is awesome!
That M43 aint to shabby either.
I hate that my job keeps me away from the web all day...I get home, and all the good stuff is sold.

Either that or something with the international web connection. couldn't see a thing for an hour:eek:, but luckily for me this dotd not my cup a tee:yawn:
Congrats to all sharks:D and they new shiny blades.
 
I have a few questions if you guys don't mind helping.

What is the difference between a Super CAK and a regular CAK? Also is copper pins stronger? Lastly sisau wood, how hard is it compared to satisal and dhar?

Well you can see my focus is entirely on the Sgt Khadka Super CAK :)
 
Copper is not stronger than steel, sorry.

Hard to say about the woods, and frankly I think you are worried about nothing here.
It is surely to be plenty up to the task or it wouldn't be in use.

I still don't know what the difference between a Super and a CAK...
 
A Super CAK is really more of a dui chirra (two fullers) hybrid than anything else. It's lighter, faster, and more agile than a standard CAK in the same size class.
 
I asked about the Super CAK recently and was told the difference is that the Super has the three pins in the handle. The pins can also be aluminum. A magnet will let you know whether the pins are steel or aluminum.
 
Gottit, thanks guys :)

Like Dhar wood especially since I've read somewhere that Dhar wood is used to make bells, bells get whacked a lot!

Copper is softer than steel but isn't the pins made with Aluminum? If it's made of steel then I'll be even happier since I thought mine was of aluminum.

CAK appeal to me is the strength and toughness. In that case the Super CAK is not going to be significantly better for me than the CAK. However it'll probably be more suitable since I'm wanting a lighter version of the CAK.

PS: Oh just saw stickfred's post. My Dharwood CAK has 3 pins too. I'll try the magnet thing, good tip.
 
those copper pins are sure nice....

Where's the guy who wanted a Cherokee Rose? Mine came today and all I can say is...
:eek:WOW!:eek:

I sharked mine the day after you set a new record of one minute. Hey, that means mine should be here TOMORROW! :eek:
 
That Super CAK is really nice, Closing in on The Perfect Camping Kukhri IMHO:cool: Congrats on good sharking :thumbup:
 
Ohhhhhhhhh man. The Cherokee Rose had to come back right after I started saving for Finland.
