An M-43. The wood is very nice, doesn't show up so well, though.

Another M-43, I believe, this time with a horn handle. I like these blades because they are basically CAKs with smooth handles.

Here's a big Balance. It has nice scrollwork on the blade.

My big Chiruwa Ang Khola. This fellow does most of my chopping.

Now a big BDC. It handles like the CAK above, but I haven't got it dirty yet. Yet!

My Bolo. These things are serious steel!

I believe this is a Chitlangi. I really like the double fullers.

Wow Andy, you've been a busy beaver.

Haha, I called you a b*****.
 
All these great outdoor pictures you are posting have inspired me and I had to go outside and give it another try.

Here are two in chandan. An Ultimate Fighter (20", 48.6 oz, 5/8" spine) and an R-6 (8", 6.3 oz, 1/8" spine).

And the Ultimate Fighter by itself (almost):

Those are some of the youngsters in the heifer pen. They are highland cattle. Actually the mother of the one looking at me in that second picture is on my avatar.

Thanks Ted. Yours and Steves photos are always just so beautiful, it gives me sometime to try for (though I am far away from that level).

willrise, I'm not sure what post you are referring to. What picture has a circled knife?

I tried to circle the short sword in the pic with a lot of swords in it one page back but it did not work

Oh, that is the backwards blade sword. It was supposed to be a gununting(sp?) and the wrong edge got sharpened. It is a pretty lively little sword.
 
alright thats it time to go buy a new camera:) by the way Steve love the handle on the last one kinda looks like an HI tanto.
 
bump to the top... i know a few of us have received a new khuk or two :D :thumbup:

Bilton that I did a handle mod on, I extended the tang and used stacked leather. Fits better in my hand and it make it handier to use, no more three finger grip.
