Photos Needed For Specific Khuks

[MrMike]

Khuk fans - I'm deciding between three khuks for my next purchase. Seems I got hit by HIKV before H1N1...

Some closeup photos would be helpful for:
-Sherpa Khuk
-18" Sirupate with horn and white metal fittings
-15" Katunje with horn and white metal fittings

Problem is I want all three and can only choose one right now.
Any help is most appreciated.

and the katunje and sherpa style(kancha kami0 can be found here.

Great info, Karda... I've made my decision. Thanks.
It would have took me forever to dig through those old threads.

Here is an early Bura Kami 18inch - 22 ounce Sirparti with Chadran wood grips from the collection of the late Brian Katz (Bri in Chi) that I now own and cherish:

Feels great in hand and is very fast, certainly much more so than my 15inch BAS.

Love the Siru! I put one on order from Bura.
Black horn, white metal fittings. Can't wait to see it.
