Lets see your special HI blades!

!!!!!!!

 

If you have never gripped a knife with two fixed "washers" fit to the width of your hand then you are in for a real surprise! As you squeeze your grip tighter that shape locks your hand meat onto the knife tighter than a crabs arse on a full moon! That is one beautiful knife!

I had a custom set of Sirupates made with Chiruwa styled handles:




These were everything a Sirupate should be. Thinner spines, very fast, comfortable grips, superb balance. Rajkumar just did everything right on these.

 

wtb salyan, why are they not a general item of HI? hard to make? these pictures are totally blowing me away omg-- I am horrible at pictures but here goes --

my brother's silver mounted Yvsa special ( 1st run I think) by sanu ( or the cross guy, his brother i mix them up)- a gelbu special with a curious bura and i think kumar initials, you guys can confirm or deny, and finally my oldest knife the first one I got, a sirupati by bura!










that is all three then singles of each !-- cant get them to work 8o

 

Here are a few,
First is an early AK from Bura, it is an older one with his old mark and prior to Uncle leaving us:



Next is a Bamboo Cutter, have not seen these since 2010:


And lastly a Parang been awhile since ive seen one:

 

My first HI.... the Hanshee Kothimoda by Bura (from a Ram raffle):

 

The first (I believe) HI cleaver:
