Or at least any that I have heard of anyone getting.
And I'm pretty sure that if anyone got one close to the size of the logo one that we would have heard about it too no end.
The Super Salyan came out as a short, stubby, and ugly khukuri that has a certain appeal to some of us. Personally I think it's sorta pretty in its own way.
I forget the weight of mine at the moment, but all of them came in at around 3 pounds IIRC. I'm too lazy to go get it and put it on the scale right now.
But if you prop the Super Salyan up an an angle and get way back from it it appears to be on the same exact scale as the one in the H.I.Logo, or at least mine does.
My Super Salyan gets treated like a redheaded stepchild and lays underneath my scroll saw in my work room.
It makes one helluva wood splitter!!!!

We only make the Salyan on special order. The 12 and even 15 inchers look pretty nice but when you start scaling up to 18 or 22 inches it starts to get ugly.
