Ooooh AAAAaaaaah!

Chit Fever and an 18" AK, at bloody ridiculous prices. Muuuusssst Reeesissst ....
 
That is one sweet Sirupati. Nice AK...nice everything. This is one of those days where a novice could buy their first HI blade to check out the product line and not go wrong with anything.
 
photo 2 is very well arranged :) i like it...

those R5s are growing on me ... a little nessmuk feel to them. someday. must collect more paychecks.

And I just had to shell out $750 for cars :grumpy: I lose out on a Leatherface sheath and a chit in less than 1 day. :grumpy:

On another note, that's the heaviest 15" BAS I've seen to date. Mine's 18 oz; what do our resident historians have to say?
 
This is what, for all of me, HI does best. These are prime examples of prime models.

But maybe that's why they're not flying off the list today - despite the prices and lovely shapes. These are ideal for folks who haven't yet got user khuks, but I guess that doesn't define most of us anymore...
 
Looks like perfect older stock with the non traditional bolster. Still as stout as hell. Make good gifts or users or friends.

I'm tapped past tap. Christmas is coming. These would be good.

If I did not already have a representative of most of the blade models offered today, I would be tempted to go for the whole lot. (A very nice HI collection with one email!) :)

OMG!! THE 18" AK.... I HAVE NO MONEY!!!

(slinks away to cry in the corner wrapped around his liqour bottle)
 
If they don't go, it won't be my fault. Just blipped a note about today's DOTD along one one picture to another forum I poke at.

Wish I had something to spare in the bank!
 
Well, I gave the AK a home, dang it all.

Did you ever notice that the more HIs you buy, the more likely that some of your old ones get moved over to the "gift" pile? Oh, so-and-so will love that (fill-in-the-blank) khuk, so it's good that I'm getting this _ (fill-in-the-blank) khuk to replace it.
 
Hello everyone, I've been reading alot and a long time from all you good folks at this forum and have learned alot with still much more to go, I have sent email on the 18" Ang Khola by Sher have been waiting a long time to make a purchase here hope I get this one. I have bought HI's before but not in this maner and at such a bargan. Thanks for all the great reading and good info. Bob
 
Billy Bob, I'm sad to say that I snagged that one already. :o If it so happened that this was your first HI khuk, I woulda' gladly stepped aside and let you buy it. Don't worry, another will come by soon (but not quite so often at that nifty price).
 
Would of loved to pick up the R5 and the Sirupati, but was busy at the post office picking up a kuk that just came in...;)
 
Well, I went ahead and did it. I just consumated the end of the begining in regard to one my recent obsessions.

Got the WWII from todays Deals, and the 15" Balance from the 8/07 Deals.

My son will choose one of these for his own, and I will begin my collection with the other.
Yes,.....................It's all over for me now.
