Well, I've finaly returned to civilization and there was a nice box waiting for me. I've been working at a camp for the summer teaching rock climbing, cutting wood, and performing firstaid on the campers and my co-workers. As much as I hate to go back to the city its good to be home, especialy when home comes with my new 28" dragon carved long handled tibetan sword by Bura.
I'd almost forgoten about it seeing as I bought it in april but sure enough there it was, made up for loosing my favorite small knife(R3) while clearing brush, bounced out of the sheath(the retaining strap never really held it in there) while I was clearing under brush. I'd love to post pictures but my camera has gone walking, if you really want to see it you can check the dotd for later april.
This sword is a peice of art, balanced perfectly nice weight and edge, just right for escrima, the carving on the horn handle and steel gaurd are fantastic. When I find my camera I'll post pictures, but I think this one takes the prize as my best looking knife/sword etc. Also I would like to thank Yangdu for sending a cool nepali tepi hat.
