Iboschi, you should contact Yangdu to see if she has one or if she can get one in the works for you. There were a few for sale this summer/fall. If one needs to be made, there may be a wait for it. There's presently a shortage of coal in Nepal to go along with their shortage of electricity. This combination may work to keep the forges quiet until things can stabilize again.
Yangdu can give you the best answer though.
Peace
Rick
Rick gives good advice
I have to take the time to praise the awesomeness that is the HSK with the thread bump.
In the last 6 months it has replaced pretty much every chopping/slicing knife in my kitchen. Now I am a simple man with simple needs, but this is such a great designIt has enough belly to slice through meat but enough weight to power through tough veggies.
Holds a really nice edge too![]()
... TAI GOO' is the man ...
... the only mod that I made was to use Plasti Dip on the handle...
I need to apologize if the tone of my post was crabby.

...I will never forget Tai's response...
He said, and I quote," I am plugged into the Universe."

See what I mean?
