My first HI Sirupati

Ula Cimmiyotti · Oct 15, 1999

Hi all,

I just recieved my first HI Sirupati! I am now a convert and probably addicted!!

It has a great overall weight, is well balanced, sharper than a (well I can't say that here), and has very nice, simple engraving. Just my style.

Even though Jeff has a couple, there is nothing like having one come in the mail with your name on it. My co-workers now think I am completely insane because I was excited before I even opened the box.

My only problem now is I want more, more, more!

Now I am gonna be wondering just how sharp it is.

Glad to see we have another addicted person.

Ula does this mean that you are going to compete with Jeff for the specials now?
hehehe

we're a competitive couple... fortunately she likes these skinny little Sirupatis and Chainpuris and I like the heavy classic forward curving style.

Namaste,

"Oh, a magic khukuri. Why didn't you say so?"

JeffPaulsen · Oct 15, 1999

sharper than a ... really sharp thing. I suppose this means that my village Sirupati has just become a garden implement.

Congratulations Ula,

You have a beautiful khukuri and have passed the official HIKV test

Ula is one of the few ladies we have on the forum and I am really glad to have her here. We need a little feminine input from time to time.

Yangdu is too busy doing her job and leaves the "screen" to me.

I'd wondered the same thing. Thanks for answering it for me.

Bill Martino · Oct 18, 1999

Yangdu stays busy. In addition to normal household chores which now include taking care of Pala, too, she does shipping, banking, mailing, errands, buys all supplies, pays the bills, and a couple of other things.
