Want to win a very nice c1820 Nepalese 'hanshee'?

This piece is very well made with a layered steel blade, steel bolster and beautiful one piece 'chandan' (fruitwood) grip. Double fullers and typical shallow 'cho' of this style piece. No scabbard. You kukri knuts will know how rare a fine, authentic 'hanshee' is so here is your chance. I have shown it with 2 other 19thc kukris for comparison. The knife is 18" overall.

$25 per chance (send to my PayPal address to be entered: jpsf@sbcglobal.net and make sure you put in your name and that it's for the HANSHEE RAFFLE). If less than 28 people enter, your PayPal money will be cancelled. No more winners (of course you'll win!) after midnite PDST on thursday, the 29th of May. Winner will be chosen by an honest Nepalese Lama or Bill Martino's wife Yangdu. She does not take bribes.

Good luck!

"She does not take bribes."

Send $50 to Yangdu for guaranteed winner. First $50 takes it all -- all other bribes returned less 50% handling fee.
 
I NEVER win anything!!!

But in this case, I win either way!:D
(As with all other recent raffles - missed for pressing priorities on homefront.)

Thanks John, for the opportunity to own(or at least to dream of) one from your "esteemed collection".
And a HANSHEE....:cool::) one of my fav's!

Sending paypal.

As Sgt Schultz used to say on "Hogan's Heros":

"I know nothing!"

I did however once think I had a clue. I was wrong.
 
Well, I used up all of my luck on the 25" siru raffle, but I'm going to try this out anyway.

Paypal sent.
 
Please keep us informed as to total count.

My Paypal (1) will go out by the weekend.

Well, it went late, but finally went.
 
Bill is wrong. Yangdu is honest, hardworking and long suffering, but DOES NOT take bribes.

Expect one mailed entry from me in a few days.:)
 
Gents,
I have received a question as to which knife was the 'hanshee'. It is the bottom one that says 'hanshee'. Nuff said.
 
In other words, the hanshee.:D
