Marks of the kamis. Important for those who wanted blade ID.

[Bill Martino]

Here are the marks of our seven full time kamis:

Bura -- cresent moon
Kumar -- six pointed star
Kesar -- half sun
Prakash -- small khukuri
Sanu -- cross
Sher -- full sun
Khadka -- fish

Part timers and visitors will not mark blades. This was what the kamis felt was the right thing to do. We get a lot of visitors and trying to come up with a symbol for each one seemed a little crazy.

Ten marked khukuris went in the air today.

Possibly add these to the FAQ, along with the date the kamis started marking the blades?
Just an idea for future identification, and to cut down Bladeforums bandwidth

So if I remember correctly it is Sanu that made the machaera, will this be marked? Also, who is making the katars?

- D

 

[Bill Martino]

I think the Machaera will be marked. Don't know who will end up making the katars -- could be a couple of different kamis.
