I just received my new
WWII model the other day it arived in three days. This kukuri is a super copper! The difference between the Atlanta cutlery and the Hi WWII is like night and day. I had asked what everyone thought about the Atlanta, and you advised me to get a Hi. Even though you said so when I used the Atlanta I thouht, could the Hi be that much better? The answer is yes very much so It is a sturdier kuK and when I chop branches with it, If I do my part and swing well and contact the sweet part of the blade the branches pop off. They even make a satisfying poping sound as they pop off. The sheath is much better quality, and the small knife and the steel( the correct names escape me at the moment) are real useful tools. The Atlanta has two small knives that will not take an edge. Just in case anyone was wondering.
 
Welcome, welcome.
Now for the bad news. You have contracted an incurable disease.
(Bruise, put the party hat on him.)
 
Mitch, congrats on the new HI. Bet it won't be your last. Which size did you get? I have a 16.5" WWII and it is my main using blade. Pair it with a 20" Sirupati and there isn't much I can't handle. :D (Toss in a 25" AK and there is NOTHING I wouldn't be able to handle :D LOL)
 
And another one falls to “the fever”. You are doomed…doomed, my friend! HIKV has you in it’s grasp. Abandon all hope ye who enter the cantina. Now that you have partaken of the khukuri there will be no stopping the hunger for more. You will not be satisfied with 1 or 5 or 15. No soon you will begin to invent reasons to buy more. Impractical reasons. Reasons birthed from madness and lunacy. “Oh I bought this one for branches up to 2.5” in diameter, this one for slightly bigger stuff, and this one for felling banana trees. Yeah, I know we don’t HAVE any banana trees to fell, but now we CAN if we HAD to.” It won’t stop there. Soon you’ll get into the thin sexy blades. The Gelbus, the Chits, the kobras. One martial arts blade will not fit every situation. “The fever” won’t allow it. “Yeah I got this chit for your run-of-the-mill home intruder. This kobra, on the other hand, is solely reserved for anti-pirate duty. What do you mean we’re landlocked and a pirate has never been spotted here?!? Why I saw a pirate just the other night at the bar. Yeah, he was giving me a real mean look with his unpatched eye. He’s just lucky I didn’t have my kobra on me! OOOO! I need to get an 18” kobra for concealed anti-pirate carry. Pirates be sneaky devils!”

You see where this is going. Once again welcome. Here’s your straightjacket. If you need me I’ll be in the padded room with Bruise playing cards with our imaginary friend Bob the purple hippo.

Nice, Jake. I can envision the game now.

Somehow i thought that might be right up your alley, Kis:) You can play if you like. Just watch Bob. he cheats almost as bad as Bruise.

thats what the kerambit is for.
yeesh.

Oh man, what was i thinking!?! I'm sure that with you being a ninja you must cross swords with pirates all the time. (as we all know, Pirates and Ninjas a sworn enemies) I feel so foolish. I even HAVE a kerambit. Maybe I better get another one.. ya know, just to be safe. Rusty always has a backup to a backup to a backup. There is wisedom in that. I've never heard of him being jumped by pirates!:)

But then, Jake, you wouldn't hear, would you? That desert is big, and "Marcellus, he don't like his stuff being messed with."


;) :D ;)

I never understood death 'threats."

Well, I've never been "jumped" by a pirate, nor "crossed swords" with a pirate.
Who do you think I am?
A McGreevey?

McGyver comes to mind right off the bat, but he's a mechanical ninja, not a sneaky one.:rolleyes: :p :D ;)
 
Like Danny said. You will now become a Khukuri addict!
I do not own a HI but I've got two khks from thekhukurihouse. It made all my other knives obsolete. Sorry Cold steel.

But, WHAT IF (dramatic music here) you could be BOTH? :eek: ;)

(DIJ, feel free to explain, if you want.)

They were called "Wako"
they carried some BIG swords. (6-8 feet long katana, in some cases)
I dont know if they were really ninjas, but they had some uber-cool toys.
