Decided to cull my HI collection some and can always use some extra cash. These khukuris have seen light use (chopping up a green tree or two, maybe some more seasoned wood) and have be sharpened with sandpaper, thus dulling some of the original finish. Wooden handled khuks have had several coats of boiled linseed oil applied. These are definitely not mint condition. EDIT: Shipping is by Priority Mail Insured, free to CONUS. Will ship international if buyer agrees to cover shipping. Paypal preferred but will also accept money orders (pp add 3%)
Edit 10/29/08: Apparently the "chips" I mentioned were caused by a dermatid (carpet beetle) larvae infestation. I have taken measures to eradicate any and all of the pests.
Top: 18" Sher Attitude by Sher. 24oz, horn handle has light gouges/deep scratches on the left side, a small 1" crack from bolster and small chip missing from left side of handle right above buttcap. $90
Left to right:
17" Foxy Folly by Sher, wood handle, 23oz, edges of FF and its karda have been convexed by Daniel Koster. Sold
17" M43 by Sher, 28oz, wood handle, blade and karda have been convexed by Daniel Koster. The scabbard has some scratches on it. Sold
21" Chainpuri by Kumar, 28oz, horn handle. This one saw some use before I got it as evidenced by the wear on the scabbard. the karda's handle has some chips missing from it and the chakma is stuck in one of the holes. Sold
20 Chitlangi by Kumar, 30oz, horn handle with scratches/shallow gouges on right side, karda has a 1/4" wide <1mm chip missing. $95
Bottom: 20" Movie Model: Bura, 25oz, horn handle, chakma has four areas with chipping (what is it with all these chips anyway)
$ 95
