My heart is still not in it so I didn't take pix but if you must have them let me know and I'll try to rally myself. I'm hoping that Catoosa and visit to homeland will help.
Anyway...
Blem 1 is an 18 inch Ganga Ram special very well done by Sanu. Weighs 35 ounces and is 1/2 inch thick. Try to break it! Very nice saatisal handle. Good karda and chakma.
There are two minor problems with the rig. First, the scabbard has a small tear. It will work as is, can be masked with black glue of your choice or a small patch can be applied. Second, there are hairline cracks at the cho. They don't look good and scare some folks but they never develop into anything.
Take this very good Sanu make rig for $95. That's a $55 saving off regular.
Call or email if interested.
Blem 2 is an 18 inch, 17 ounce Kobra made by -- you won't believe it -- Sher! Where Vikash found this knife I have no idea but it has been with us for awhile. Has the old style scabbard without tooling and an early version HI superfrog. It's a very good knife and quite unusual for Sher because it is only 1/4 inch thick and less than an ounce per inch. This must have been something he made to show his little brother that he could make any knife around if he wanted to.
The problem with this knife is the horn handle has a crack about 3/4 inch long at the bolster. It's a super glue fix and the knife has been here in hot, dry Reno for a long time so I think this crack is as far as it's going to go.
I have mixed emotions about selling the last Sher knife but I can't keep them all. No room under the bed. Take it for $60 delivered to your door.
