new but old topic.....

As a total khuk noob I have nothing yet :( The bigget blade I have is a Camillus Maxx.

My plans, in no particular order:
Something between 16 and 18"
-Chiruwa Ang Khola or Ang Khola
-Pen Knife
-Ganga Ram Special or Baby Ganga Ram
- A Kagas Katne: they are so cute :)
- Who knows, I want a big bowie, maybe it will be a HI.

But it all depends of the DOTD, I hope to get a villager or a blem.

EDIT: Yes it's 5h53 am eastern time :) Don't study until 3 and have a bad sleep: Go to bed at 11 and wake up at 5 :)
 
I think I'm done for a while.

I mean, I'd like an M43 someday, but other than that I've got more large blades than I could ever use. My knife collection is all users. I've always made it a point to sharpen and use all my knives, so that there is no value in selling them. No temptation when the times get bad. But I don't like knives getting no use, and I see too much of that in my HI collection nowadays.

Though, that Munk Chunk Bowie looks sweet to my eyes....
 
I no longer have a backyard or a fireplace, so I'm mostly dormant. Even so, every so often I get the pesky urge to order a katar. Or a Sgian Dubh. Or a Dui Chirra. Or a...

The ones I want right now are:

Chitlangi Bowie
Falcata
Indonesian sword
Bhojpure or Tin Chirra
25" Kobra

#1 everest katana - standard model w/ horn handle
#2 bolo... a guess i came to the hobby a few months maybe weeks too late since these were all over DOTD's before
#3 r-1 stick knife*
#4 gelbu special
#5 kothimoda model... dont know when i will be able to dish out the $ for one of these

god... i need a better job :foot:
 
Hey, what's the going name for the model that looks like a Dui Chirra but has a buttcap, and often just a flat grind (no fullers)?
I think it started with a D. That's one I need to get, though they have been scarce lately.
