Howard, nice display of how measurements for the Kuhkuris are done. Very informative for a beginner like me, now when I tell Uncle Bill that I am looking for a "skinnier" blade, I can say "approximately 3 and 3/8" drop, about 15" blade length, about 2" belly depth, and about 4" handle length." Thanks, Howard!!!

Chad,

You're welcome. I'm just providing a space to display the information.

Credit for the measuring conventions and the drawing goes to Yvsa and John Powell.

You can't rehire them, but you could give them a raise, Bill. Not in dollars and cents -- a raise of $0.00 per year would not adequately express your esteem for them -- instead, I suggest you give them a raise of 5%.
