Save $50 on this 20 inch Chirwa Sirupat by Kumar. Pix and bargain time.

[Bill Martino]

Here is a very nice 20 inch, 2.5 pound, 1/2 inch thick Chiruwa Sirupati made by Kumar. Fit, finish are okay except for handle slab fit. Hardness is about 59 Rc in the chopping area. Overall, it is a 9.5 out of 10 rig with these two problems. The horn slabs have shunken a bit and to make the handle perfect the tang needs to be taken down maybe .015 in spots. Or, the quick and easy method is to use 50 cents worth of epoxy as a filler and simply fill the irregularity. Or, faster yet is wrap the handle is a sports grip tape like a tennis racket handle.

Problem two is a crack in the chakma handle that can be fixed with 10 cents worth of epoxy.

The price for this rig delivered to your door is $75.

Call or email if interested.

First to see another one....but I don't think I need it! That is a funny look chakma! I think I want something slimmer than 1/2" for this length. When you finally post "the one" there will be 20 messages replying to you before I see it!


I bet this one goes fast.
