Like the tortoise and the haire. I patiently waited to see if Uncle Bill would lower the already insanely low price, and he did!:D My first monster khukuri! Can hardly wait to get it.

On a somber note, it appears that HIKV is not a joke. I discovered the HI forum and posted for the first time on 5/19 of this year, and have already acquired three HI Khuks(BGR,BAS,now 20"AK) from Uncle Bill, and two villagers(Nepalese Army knife and Bhudini) from T.Sisco. No cure in sight.

And yes HIKV is very real in spite of what Tsimi and Cougar say.:D
Although I do have to agree with the Knife Deficiency Syndrome as I have had it ever since I was about 4-5 years old. (It's my belief that the KDS is what 1st infects us, but that the actual viruses are what's so potentially fatal to us.)
I was usually very careful about using sharp objects when I was so very little, but that didn't stop my inexperience from jumping out once in a while resulting in a serious cut.:eek::(
I almost cut my finger off with a hatchet when I was about 5 years old, but that didn't stop me using or loving sharp edged pieces of metal.:eek::D
 
You are on the right path with the rest of us. It is a journey with good company and I am enjoying it a lot. Welcome fellow traveler. May your blades stay sharp and your fingers intact.
 
HIKV is kicking my butt to!! I just bought 3 khuks in 2 days! A Sirupati,Silver mounted/carved AK and a WWII!!! I've Been getting khuks sense 1993, I guess I had HIKV back then befor it was discovered but I have never gotten 3 at one time!:confused: It must be in it's terminal stages....I think that's a good thing though!!!:D

Sounds sorta like overdrive to me Bro.:D

But that's alright. I don't recall the most I have had coming to me at one time and I really don't want to know.:o
And now just when I thought I had reached a slowdown place H.I. and the BirGhorka kami's come up with something new to entice me.
I fear that this is gonna be a life long battle and that the best any of us can hope for is that no H.I.Khukuri's are enroute to us when we walk West. (kick the bucket for those that don't know what walking West means.:D)
I mean it would be horrible to kick off before you got to fondle your last H.I.Khukuri!!!!!!!:(:D:D:D:D
 
Just leave instructions that if it should happen, and it arrives in time, for the mortician to just place the sheath alongside you and put a little superglue on your hand and curl your thumb and fingers around it's handle. On second thought, forget the superglue. Just tell him to keep his fingers out of the way when he gets within your reach.


(Hey, it works for Busse. Remember their ads about "Just in case you can take it with you?")
