research site for old kukris

John Powell · Apr 23, 2005

Rod has started a new website/group for those interested in old kukris. The high falutin' name says it all The International Kukri Research & Historical Society. If you have any questions in a historical context or need to ID pieces this will be the place to go. There is a sign up fee of $3500 and it already has some guys on it who have good insights and are anxious to share their knowledge and collections. I think he is waiving this modest fee for the first 10,000 to sign up, so take a look. www.ikrhs.com

Waiving the fee?! Wait .... how do I get my money back?

Cool! Thanks for the tip, John.

Rod waives fees, and now John tips the Moderators?

A modest fee of 3500 dollars?

Here in San Francisco $3500 is not only modest, but mere pocket change, beer money, a quick lunch.

Rod tells me he's getting a lot of good response. It should be an interesting site.

Maybe we can scrap the 3500 and take donations in kukris...........

munk · Apr 25, 2005

I'm guessing that's 35.00 dollars...I hope.

Cunomor, Welcome to HI forum.

Some people are so rich, they can afford to double post.

I love this forum. Where else can you find a duck that posts with a stutter.

Munk, rest easy. It's not $35 anything...it's free.

The DUCK is so medicated he tries to do everything twice to make sure he did it right in the first place.

Berk, if you skip lunch you can overindulge later.

Munk, what John is trying to say is it's free if you slip me a $1000 gratuity, but definitely not $35.

It still beats the $3500 quoted in the original post.
