just so we'll know

[mott]

what is the correct name for the khuks that have no shoulder such as the ycs or the hi m43 model?

p.s. is there anything in hi iventory that has no shoulder and has a fuller belly than a suripati but a longer point than a ycs?

We generally call them a forward curving model.

The Baby Ganga Ram may fit the bill, mott.

Mott the Baby GRS is among my 3 favorites of the medium sized khukuris.
It's another one that cuts like a much heavier khukuri.

Or you could do like Harry and order a special YCS that's a bit longer than the standard.
I believe there's a pic of Harry's longer and fancier YCS that was posted less than 6 months ago that a search would turn up.
I don't recall how the point was done though.

I think Mott would love the Baby GRS.

I'm not completely sure just what Mott means by "longer point" but I would interpret it to mean that he want something with a point that is "pointier" like a sirupati, UBE or BAS rather than more rounded, like a (B)GRS.

Paul, if you posted a pix I can't see it.
