Since we lost half of our Nepali shipping staff I have to take up the slack so these may be the only two PGAs I can get up today.

Top is a 16.5 inch 27 ounce Chiruwa Ak by Bura. It's a 10/10 rig, knife, karda, chakma, scabbard & frog. The only flaw is Bura has filled an area (about 1/16x1/4) of one slab with his Bura made color matching epoxy. Maybe a crack of some sort of imperfection in the horn.

But the fill gets you $50 off regular. We'll ship this one for $95.

Call or email.

Bottom is 15 inch 25 ounce Chiruwa AK by Sher. Another 10/10 rig with excellently made and tooled scabbard by village sarkis. Only thing that keeps this rig from being in the perfect category is another very small fill area on right handle slab next to bolster. I think you can see the filled area in the pix. Sher has not learned Bura's color matching process yet.

But this fill saves you $50 off regular. We'll ship this fine effort by Sher and village sarki to your door for $75.

Call or email.

I don't believe that it's a matter of not wanting them, Uncle Bill. Many of your older customers already have these models and old coots like me can't aford them right now. I don't think they will stay around too long.
A lot of guys are off for the weekend already on Friday too.
 
That top knife by Bura looks like a real mean chopper. Maybe it's my imagination or I can't see well. The weight looks to like it is out front pretty far, which would make chopping very easy.
 
It would be the best, Pappy, if for no other reason it's a little longer and heavier. Forgot to mention the bottom model has very nice scabbard -- new leather and nicely tooled.
