Dude that CAK is gorgeous!

 

[JayGoliath]

I see Sgt.Khadka's shadow in it. Fabolous CAK!

 

[Qeth]

For posterity:

15" blade, 22" OAL. Spine thickness around 5/16".

One thing I noticed is I haven't seen many, if any, AK bowie pics. I have one on order, but you just don't see much of it around. Must not be as common as some of the other knives here. I must say, I just spent literally 1 hour looking at all these pictures. I'm starting to actually believe this HIKV disease is a serious threat to the health of a mans wallet!

My first two knives from H.I.:

15" AK w/wood handle.

I love the carvings on this Kumar Karda.

 

[Dirtbiker]

My latest additions. Both blems but I'm not afraid to use them.

A villager Gelbu Special had a mild crak in the handle. I cold blued the blade. Dosen't really show here but it came out pretty good.

A YCS that had some rust. I just buffed it to a villager finish.

Very nice! I really like the shape of that Seax. Thats what they oughtta look like Good to see this thread bbt. I wonder if photo!uckit is out of biz yet? Ill add some pics too of my latest acquisitions.

"The" BirGorkha Tarwar

This one should look familiar. It's the probably the sword most HI fans recognize as a Tarwar since it's the one pictured on the website. Made by Bura, I can't believe it's almost twenty years old.
