Foxy Folly Sizes??

[bigjim]

What are the range of sizes for the Foxy Folly.
How small to how big..... I think I would like one from both extremes.

Anybody know?

The first FFs turned out to be about 21" and 3+ lbs. You'd either have to have one special ordered or get one from another forumite. Then there were the 21" 24oz FFs that appeared on a few specials. You'd have to use the above mentioned options for get one of those. And finally there are the current 17" 24oz FFs. If you don't have one already, just stay tuned for the next DOTD thread.

First Foxy Folly was 22" and 3+ lbs.

Next was the 17" and ~2 lbs.

Next was the 21" and 28 oz.

Next was the 21" and 21-25 oz.

Next was the 17" and 26 oz

Last was the 17" and 24 oz



This is all FWIW, IMHO, YMMV, IIRC.....

That's the way I remember them coming as well. Didn't some or all of the 17" 26 ounce ones have a habaki bolster?

 

[Daniel Koster]

Yes, I believe you are correct, Yvsa.

 

[Astrodada]

And did somebody ordered a 19 inches one ?

Astro, I think it was Andy that ordered the 19" Foxy Folly.

Yes it was aproy......Is there going to be a few of those produced ?

Wonder what will the weight be ?

 

[Fiddleback]

Yep I ordered a 19". I just thought 22 was too long for me. I like my 18" GRS, so I figured an 18-19" FF would do me just right. I have a warm feeling inside just talking about it. I have already made a new karda for it, and I am close to finishing the chakma. It is to have dark wood handle. I purposefully didn't give too much information because I am interested in seeing what the Kamis do. I hope its heavier than 21oz. When it arrives I will have 5 Hi khuks. And I'll have to sit tight for a while while I really utilize those. That will be hard. The Chitlangi is calling me, and yesterday's villager was almost more than I could pass up. Also that YCS is a beautiful rig and I don't want to miss out on one of those. HIKV is hard. Come to papa FF.

Edited: I've heard 28oz is perfect and wouldn't mind if it was near there.

 

[Daniel Koster]

Come to papa FF.

LMAO!!

Yes, I would like to see one at 28 oz. as well. 26-28 would be fine for me, actually.
