It would be foolish for me to imagine a wander-free thread....:D.....downright snobbish, in fact.

No habaki bolster! Tell me that's not a Bura.
 
Absolutely. It's so wrong. No pwankh. How could they?

Nice convex grind, though -- on the first one.

Man that just makes my head hurt. Edited to add the first few pictures are what make my head hurt. Dan is that yours?
 
And of course...for the new guys....

Bill hates it when I bring this up...because he gets a flood of emails about it.

So DON'T email Bill about it....ask me. :D

A Gen U Wine, Swish, Tango Kookeri Knife!!!! Wouldn't that fit Tsimi, aka The DUCK, aka Quackipuss, aka jim l clifton, aka ad nauseum right to a Tee?!?!?!?:eek:
Was it not BillTheCat who showed us Tsimi's Swishbuckling side in that fancy lacy costume once upon a time?:rolleyes:
Anybody else remember that or was it just a figyment of my imagynation? ;)
If Tsimi The Swishbuckler had such a KayNife as that he could Swish to his widdle Swishbucklin's heart's content now couldn't he?!?!?!?!:rolleyes: :eek: :p :D
I suppose that might be what one could consider a Real Swishbucklin's Swishin time ainnit? :D
Tsimi loves talkin in a lisp you know! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! I can just see it now! LMRRAO!!!! :rolleyes: :D

Just realized something!


When I renewed my Knifemaker status......it erased my "custom title".....I asked Spark to put it back on....but there was a spelling snafu.....:D


Now I'm as bad as the pics I'm posting!!!

:D :eek: :footinmou
 
for Yvsa... & Tsimi...


---------------------------
Who am I?
My name is Ish.
On my hand I have a dish.

I have this dish
to help me wish.

When I wish to make a wish
I wave my hand with a big swish swish.
Then I say, "I wish for fish!"
And I get fish right on my dish.

So...
if you wish to wish a wish,
you may swish for fish
with my Ish wish dish.

I'm just waiting for Tsimi's response, that is if he doesn't ignore me.;)
 
come on, folks....I see a bunch of ya readin' this here thread....jump on in anytime...post a khuk pic or two....we won't bite ya.

:D :p
 
Dang, Dan, as if Dr. Seuss didn't freak out enough kids already! Now he is swish and he carries a kukri?! :p I really need to up my membership so I can post pics. I'll shut up now since I have nothing of substance to add to this thread :)
 
"one Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish" was my favorite book as a kid:D....probably why i'm so screwed up;)

As far as game model khuks go, these don't look that bad. Every other model i've seen looks more like some kind of tactical Cold Steel KLO.

Email sent on the Khuk folder .... :D :D :D

That fixed blade (non video game model) is a beauty. All it needs is a little cho tucked in there.
