Hello, I am curious to see what the population of this forum would want to get if the could have a Kami Gone Wild build something for them. A few of my choices would be:
1) Wakazashi or other short sword
2) A tool kit, with the awl, saw, Chackma, and other goodies
3) Ulu or other kitchen knife
4) possibly a hatchet
So what's on your list?
(of course mine will probably change when I see some of your answers)
 
kunai
kyoketsu shoge
all kinds of shuriken
yari
naginata
nagamaki
bisento
shuko
kusarigama
oh-gama
kamayari
 
Can't fit the trebuchet in the garage. Maybe a black powder mortar would be better :D

Second on the ulu
Meat cleaver
Hatchet/axe; may be best if they just did the head to fit available handles easier to ship them around
 
Scramasax, about 24" overall, with GS-style fuller.
Danish axe blade
Kama, ogama
Boar spear or yari
Naginata
Extra wide bellied Tarwar, with fuller (falchion, basically)
Mace heads
Close replica (weight and geometry) of a Baselard
Sai/jutte/iron ruler

I'd like to see a 15" khukuri. Blade style like a Ganga Ram but a little bit narrower at the end of the blade and wider at the other end than the current Ganga. Shorter and smaller diam handle with a wide flare to the butt.
No cho creep, non habaki bolster, and tool kit like some of the other khuks have.

I'd also like to see a real trishul that was sharp and could be mounted on a pole like the one Shiva carries.
 
I don't have money after the YCS deal, but the Bura Sabre that was shown in the khuk pictures thread reminded me that I lusted for one of those. And a 3/4 scale, wider version, the Bura cutlass.
 
i would go nuts for some philipino weaponry.

Barong, Pinuti... oh yea.

or how about a simple tanto? (hira zukuri)

no wait!

a dha! a himalayan imports dha.

oh yea... i would shell out $$$

:eek:
 
A cleaver. A no nonsense, really big, heavy, bone crunching cleaver. It would sell. It would cross markets.

they rock. I think they call it the HI Falcatta:

A really elegant, slim, graceful, delicately curved hanshee like the wonderful old ones John Powell posts from time to time. Nothing "futuristic" thanks.
 
I think what is most likely is we see UB's post with the pic, see something shiny and in our minds beautiful and jump on it if we have the fund or got their first.

but anyway my wish list is a solid double edge bowie or tanto style fighting knife at the 14" mark. if it has a forward curve all the better.

An axe, i need a tomahawk at this point and if one pops up with a metal handle, why not

10" or under utility knife, something for skinning and slicing. maybe something that can be a substitute boot knife.

A new HI Kenpo khuk would be great.

I'm not big on handle guards but it would be good and tempting to see.

A special katana would be nice, need a sword.
 
You newer folks should know Bill has said "no' to tomahawks because of handle problems. We will see no throwing hawks.

But But But,

We can dream can we not?

To throw throw throw her is to
Love love love her.
 
You know I was just about to buy a throwing Hawk when I found HI and went khuks.
