Delayed HIKV: Its A Killer

14 for 2005. Any denial or scepticism that I may have had is gone. HIKV is real, and it will consume you. Know this newbies, if you're reading this, you're already doomed. You are now part of the afflicted who bear the depleted checkbooks, patches of shaved armhair, and woodchip strewn yards. You may placate the virus with a few DOTDs in the early stages, but eventually you will fall. Resistance is futile. Have a nice day.

I am doomed for sure. She's already packing. Where do you keep 30 Khuks? (Newbie by the way)

I just checked my list and the calendar.

32 khukuris, 9 knives, 3 swords in 67 days... I'm thinking sudden onset HIKV is worse than delayed HIKV.

I've got a depleted checkbook, bald patches on my arm and nicks on my fingers. I have mineral oil baths in the workshop, kitchen and laundry room. There are woodchips in the yard, in the driveway and on the porch. There is sandpaper grit on the floor of the living room and my bedroom. The whole house smells like ballistol and I'm running out of t-shirts. The drawers and every flat surface in the living room and bedroom are filled and/or covered in khukuris, swords and knives. I wander from store to store asking for epoxy resin, crazy glue and hooflex. And, to make things worse, my mailman is disgruntled and getting angrier and more buff with each delivery.
 
Don't forget the Ballistol®.

You're just not taking this thing seriously if you don't have a gallon can of it in the garage.

In the garage?!?! What if one of them needs oiled in the middle of the night?

I'm a little concerned that what others call a belt sander would be known as a khukuri chucker in my hands...
 
Only if your cat doesn't still have all his parts and feel that you'll do as a food source when his bowl is empty....
 
Well, that may be in the Cat's secret heart, but he needs to gain 120 pounds to do anything about it.

Man, I only recently started this khuk hobby, and started off ordering 2 khuks within the first 24 hours. Hmm, I'm wondering if this is the start of tha HIKV?
 
I always add a finish to the handles of my new khuks. This may take a week or two before all of the coats are dry.

I don't buy another khukuri until the finish has dried completely.

At least, this gives me a week or two between purchases.

A little willpower can help.

But, you always seem to want that other model....
 
None of you guys are telling me where you keep that many knives?

My garage is full of woodworking equipment, so thats not an option.

I guess last week was my first khuk purchase...a two for $20 deal. Immediately knocked the handle off of the first one and redid it. Also ripped the scabbard apart and checked out how they did that. After that I ordered three more khuks from more reputable sources...kh and hi. Now I have to wait and wait it seems. Ugh...
