Craig:

A couple of years ago I got an HI 15" Ang Khola (a Blem) and fell for the Khukuri blade. Well, I just can't live with only one so I've just ordered three from you - a 20" Ang Khola (need to chop some small trees/bushes), an 18" Panawal, and a 20" Sirupati. Now I only have to explain to my wife why I "need" three more fearsom looking blades.

Oops! And thank you. I'm looking forward to getting the wee weed-wackers.
 
Loki,

Have you received your latest additions yet? I'd really like to know your thoughts on the Sirupati. I hear they're fast and graceful but don't recall seeing any type of in depth review on one.

Got them but haven't got a chance to really use them yet. The 20" Ang Khola has a date(s) with several Palms, Pepper, and Citrus trees over the next few weeks. What a brute of a blade.

The 18" Panawal needs a little work on the handle - need to remove some pointy metal from the full tang. Fearsome looking blade -good to have when something goes bump in the night (or bushes).

The 20" Sirupati is my favorite. Light and agile. I don't expect to use this a garden tool. For me this is a nice short cutting sword. Nice to take on walks in the bushes when you don't know what critters are about. The only fault with this one is the sheath is a bit tight. I'll see if I can't modify the sheath a bit to make for a better fit.
