Five "Finger Grip" Ang Kholas available

Craig Gottlieb · Jun 30, 2000

In the next shipment, due in about 2 weeks, are five 15-16 inch AKs with a new grip:

This grip was modeled after a grip I found in a shop in Kathmandu accross from my hotel (the guy couldn't figure out why I didn't buy it)

.

Anyway, if TB's guys do as good a job on the finger grip khukuri as they did on the Rieger khukuri, this one will be a real winner.

Am taking advanced orders for anybody who wants one. Price is $99.00 (six bucks more than the standard 16 inch AK). Shipping is included.

I just got these in on Friday, and they are VERY comfortable to hold. I think that although the handles aren't pretty, they do add something to the whole package - no pointy buttcap to dig into your hand whilst you chop.

And a note: they didn't come as ang kholas, but as WWIIs.
