Murali Kami & The Villager Knives For 7/1

[Yangdu]

I have four (4) Villager CAK knives handmade by Murali Kami for sale today only.
These knives are great for camping, chopping and backpacking.

Murali Kami does a wonderful work of making these villager knives and is probably well-known to many of you.

There is a special treat for those who buy these four knives today. Murali Kamis's name means "flute" in English and Murali in Nepalese, and I am including a free bamboo flute with each order.

After working all day making knives for your collections, Murali Kami likes to
sit back and to play a flute will relax the 4 of you lucky enough to get one of these knives.

I have four knives with flutes available today only. If you want one, act quickly. Once they're gone, they're gone.

My musical ability is limited to dropping rocks in the water. These look great.

This is too cool, even if I can't play the flute (yet). Email sent for number 2.

7rip13a,
#2's gonna be settled by seconds unless there is a stealth shark in the water. Dibs placed on #4 via email if I loose.
Good luck

I'd love to have one of those...but the wife's car is kaput

Just heard back, stealth shark detected. Ah well, guess I'll have to go for #1.

I've been drooling over the CAK villagers the last couple weeks...if one was in the 16" range...would have to have one!

no stealth shark the electrons ran their race. I thought you had me the few seconds I was deciding between #2 & 4. I do work in IT but I did no congering if an M43 had been at stake I'd have stacked the deck.

 

[7rip13a]

Ah, no problem. Thought there was another party that snagged the CAK early on.

Received #2 Today, I haven't sharpened it yet or polished up the wood. I can say this thing is a beast! Full 3/8" Spine and heavy. The edge is good from Murali but I'm going to do some polishing. I'm going to limb out a tree on Friday but when the sun gets a little cooler the local vegetation will suffer I now have my hiking & camp knife. More review later.

Added pics. I should probably start another thread but I sanded and did a ferric chloride etch on the blade. The dark area is where the steel was hardened during quench.
