custom ordered this from uncle bill a while ago... dont want to sell it, but money is incredibly important to me right now (home comes before goods :( )

its a rare 30" ang khola, something you barely ever see, let alone for sale. 1/2" thick made by sher. entire rig is 7lb 6oz. the knife itself weights 5lb 4oz.

its never been used for anything other then me oggling it and taking it out every now and again.

400$ 375$ 350$ price = 300$SOLDshipped and insured via ups ground. i do this because of the size, and im not sure if i could get a box that would go usps priority.

next is a 20" sirupate made by amtrak. it has a vinegar patina, and is in good condition except for a chip in the blade near the belly of the tip. the chip is .052" in length (a hair over 1mm) and .022" deep (about .75mm). it could probably be sharpened out, but will need to be rebeveled to do so.

it has been sharpened. i dont remember what the anlge i used was, but im pretty sure i was aiming for 24 degree's per side, but had to go more obtuse for the tip and the curve near the choil.

its a touch under 3/8" thick. entire rig = 2lb 4oz. the blade itself is 1lb 10oz

price = 50$ SOLD pending fundsshipped and insured via usps priority mail.

i only ship to the us, and i do this because i have lost to much money shipping to other countries to risk it again.

thanks for looking :D
 
seth does your index finger even touch your thumb on the 30 inchers handle. that thing is HUGE
 
yes, but barely.

handle circumfrance = 6" at the top, and 5" at the bottom (near pommel).

if you cut out a handle of similar cirumfrance into a 2x4 thats around 36-40" long, and work out with it, you can build up the forearm and hand strength to use this thing with a decent sense of reliability. right now, i can use it one handed, but i cant control it on the downward strike at full speed with one hand. given about a month of excersize with the 2x4's really dedicating my time, i could probably get to that point in a month

totally unused :)

i bought it as a splitter, but havent gotten the chance to do any since i purchased it. should i ever make one for myself - it will actually end up being more burly then the one shown. the blade will be a little shorter, it will have a thinner handle and will be around 3/4" thick. a splitting maul like no other :eek: :D

20" siru = paid for and shipped :D

30" ak still available
 
Its a beauty. I wish I could sneak that bad boy past Mrs. hall monitor. Hate that you have to sell her. Can you imagine pulling that on a burglar?
 
I got my 20" Surupati yesterday and it is a beauty. The chip in the blade looked much large in the pic. In person, you can barely see it! Great Kukri at a great price. SethMurdoc shipped it qiuckly with insurance. What a guy!
 
price drop to 300.... (what i paid for it)

i dont think im going to drop this much lower then this....

that beard adds 5-10 years to my face when i have a close buzz, and takes away 5 years when i have long hair.

weirdest thing...
