PGA#5 for 3/20 -- 25" Sirupati by KNN.

[Bill Martino]

25.5 inches and 34 ounces of perfection by KNN. I've got a pix of one of the KNNs I'll get posted some day. The guy is about 50 so this means he's got 40+ years of experience and it shows. Great knife and beautifully done. Scabbard is old style leather with tooling -- rates 7 or 8 our of 10. All else is 10/10+.

Take it away for $95, $55 off regular. Less than $4 per inch for handcrafted perfection.

Call or email.

Still looking for the right home.

Wow, that's 5 oz lighter than my 20" Sirupati! This one must feel light.

Sombody is gonna like this one!

 

[Roger Smith]

Since I got mine, I'm wondering how they are as choppers. Since I haven't had time, anyone with a comparison?

 

[Bill Martino]

Actually, these knives chop pretty well. They'll surprise you.

I got a 25" 35oz siripati, it can gather quite a bit of momentum with a hard swing. I can chop a 1.5" maple branch with one swing, and I'm not a big guy

Too big for me!
I just sold my 25" kumar kobra to a fellow forumite cause I couldn't handle it,
I can't imagine a 25" sirupati I actually thought about getting a 30" sirupati at one time.
What was I thinking?

At only an ounce or two over 2 lbs, this one should be relatively easy to manage, especially for the larger forumites.

 

[Bill Martino]

It's still looking.

One of these is a little much for me to handle for any length of time. The 20" one is JUST RIGHT. But someday it will certainly look great on the wall mounted with a crossed identical mate or a 25" Kumar Kobra. At least that's the plan. Then again, maybe I could bulk up, muscle-wise. (The other tissues are already bulked-up, thanks)

A 6:30 AM phone call took this one away -- I think. I was too sleepy so am still not sure.
