golok,

"... talonite.

Is it the latest "in-thing" as far as blades are concerned? When will it ever be affordable for the work-to-death-for-low-pay man-in-the-street?"

Check out David Boye's knives, especially the 'dendritic cobalt' blades. He makes small fixed blades and folders. This material has a lot in common with talonite, which is also like stellite, a cobalt alloy. They don't corrode, even in salt water, sharpen easily, cut even when dull.

 
Golok,

If I come to your country to get a knife, I won't know anyone there but you. Will you put me up for a couple of days? We can go hunt up some reticulated pythons in the jungle and lop them to bits with my new golok. Cobras will do if we don't find any large pythons.

Seriously though, who wants to chip in some cash and see if we can't place us an order for some goloks from our new member here?
 
You called?

Sure I'm in. Just let me know what you find and how much you want for it.

 
I'd be interested in chipping in some $ for a Golok that had been checked on location for quality by a Bladeforums member.
 
Nice meeting you too, Eric.

I must say I was very impressed with your collection and the ones you had on the table the other day.

No wonder your name has been mentioned with great respect among the few bladesmen walking around.

See you another day!

Always have fun while pursuing your dreams!
 
Thank you Golok for your kind words

Anyway, i hope you can join us again this weekend same time same place together with Khor. I'll bring the rest of my knives for your enjoyment and not forgetting my pride and joy, the "Odessa II". This piece will let you have an idea of how Talonite feels like.

Golok, Welcome to the Forums. I must say it is nice to see my fellow countrymen in here. This place is great because we can share our opinions and that is what it is a place to share. We try not to offend. I know of the outragous prices of knives made in the US being sold in Malaysia. When I went back earlier this year Eric aka Keninshiro hung out together and bought some knives from me because it was way cheaper. I must say there is no way I would ever bring a thousand dollar knife to the jungle. A $15 machete will do nicely. Not that I have much experince in the jungle at all. I am a city boy. Now can you ship me a golok???


P.S. Yo, Howie your post made me laugh so much I almost fell off my chair. Right on dude.

Nice to hear from a kindred spirit in the
Knife World.

One of your pals has mentioned your name. He's looking forward to see you.

Perhaps we can meet next time when you are back in the country.

Yam Seng!!
